Help, Custom Spokes, Or Possible Old Stock For Sherco 50 Rear Spokes Anywhere?

[sting32]

surely outside the USA, there has to be a dealer that has been around a while, might have some spokes for the sherco .5 circa 2000-2003, this is the 50cc bikes.

Anyone got any ideas, I called RYP in usa, he didn't have any and says he cant get them from Sherco, so now I need a lucky guess on a dealer that might have had some, or custom spoke maker?

Custom Options? thinking someone had to make them for Sherco at some point. Honda urban express wheels have same spokes but are 1/2 inch too long, still the problem is getting the wire "threaded" if I get them cut. Really hoping for help from people overseas (non usa?) that might be able to help. Im still calling places in the USA.

I have a whole bunch of the honda spokes, if I could get threads on them, I would be set. No idea who can thread the spokes.

the diameter is 2.63 mm, they think it is 12 gauge, spokes.

Both these places refered to from others in the USA:

I called Buchannon Spokes in USA, diameter is too thin for them to do anything with.

I called Webcyclery (bicycle shop) they are too thick of a guage.

That is who I was going to suggest! Put them in a box and send them!

I guess you already compared sizes on the Gasser 50 wheels?
