tikka65 Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Starting at the back with the refurbishment of my 315r, I replaced the rear wheel bearings and discovered I have 4 spokes missing....oooer! Can anyone tell me where I can find a wheelbuilder who can replace them for me. Tried Wildes at York, but he doesn't keep the Montesa spokes.

04r1 Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Just give sandifords a call, I broke one recently at a trial, the short part from the rim, and it cost 59p or something silly. I don't know how much the longer hub end spoke would be but not much. You can do this yourself, it ain't rocket science... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perce Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Once these spokes start snapping the lot eventually go as the remaining ones stretch, so what happens is you're constantly replacing them. Best bet is to have the wheel rebuilt with a full set of spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
