XT600 Rear Spokes

**paulwilliamaskew** · #1 26 Aug 2009

Hi everyone,
I was thrilled to find out that my XT (94) has failed its MOT for missing one rear spoke (bummer!). I have been looking on Google and Ebay etc.. but can't find a set for sale anywhere. Does anyone know where I can buy some spokes from? My rear wheel fits a 17 inch tyre not an 18 inch. I really don't want to have to order some specialist hand-made titanium space shuttle part or something since I am basically skint and need to make this a low cost operation.

I used these people when I rebuilt my rear wheel (I had more than one spoke broken, and most loose, so I did the whole thing):

Central Wheel Components Limited

Great products, but best to send them a sample of what you need, as they don't seem to keep specifications in stock for rare bikes like the XT

If they have the specs there, they will be from my bike!

Loads of stuff in the catalogue, complete with price lists etc.

Well, how much was it for you, and what did you get?

I bought a full set of spokes for the rear in stainless, and rebuilt it on my old hub and rim. 55GBP for 40, and I only used 36, so I have four spare.

Paul, are you interested in them, if you only need a few?

Hi BlackDogZulu,
Send me a PM saying how much you want for all four and we may strike a deal.

Paul
