gasthatchgas Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hi there can anyone.....or big John.....tell me what length spokes I require front the front and rear wheels on my 1980 Sherpa, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old trials fanatic Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Got to ask at the risk of stating the blindingly obvious cant you measure the ones in the wheels i assume you are rebuilding? If not Dave Renham does sets. For the sake of the moderators I HAVE NO CONNECTION WITH BULTACO UK OTHER THAN BEING A SATISFIED CUSTOMER AND TRYING TO HELP THE POSTER !

I've only got the 199B in at the moment but i can measure that for you if you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
