dougalthedog Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Hi Does anyone know where I can buy a full set of front and rear Z spokes plus nipples? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) One of the sets is discontinued now, so no longer available from Yamaha - really good idea given how many TY Monos are out there. Can't remember whether it is front or rear off the top of my head. All you can do is try all of the dealers and see if any have any new old stock on the shelves (for the set you can't order any more - the other set can still be ordered from Yamaha by the dealer) As far as I know there are no aftermarket replacements and Central Wheel won't make them (or wouldn't when I asked some time ago) from an original pattern. Nigel Birkett had planned to have some made but don't know if he ever did so worth a call. if you are looking to replace spokes because they are just scabby, rather than broken or missing, you can get the spokes and the nipples chrome/nickel plated. I did this and they came out well. Edited November 16, 2007 by Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougalthedog Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 After lots of phone calls and e-mails - Birketts (01229 716806) can supply rear spokes and nipples. Fronts are apparently still available from Yamaha. Hope this may be of help to others. Cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougalthedog Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hi Spokeman Thanks for the reply I - managed to get some (the original post is 2 years old) - but I'm sure there are lots of other potential customers out there.
