Review on ๐Ÿšฒ BaveL 36pcs Steel Spokes: Premium MTB Spokes for Mountain Bikes 281mm-295mm with Nipples by Ted Slaughter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Spoked wheels work great!

I used wheel build #1 and source 2 to get the correct spoke length. I ordered the spokes assuming they fit my measurements not the rim and the final product as I only found important that they fit the exact length ordered. I was hoping they would be strong, with smooth threads, perfect nipples, and thread into the wheels with some smoothness rather than scraping off the plating when they crossed. They met all of my expectations and I had no issues with the fitment of the wheels. I am particularly satisfied with the black coated spokes. They are not as flexible as SS spokes, but when driving they are simply made of a stronger and lighter material than SS spokes. Since my bike has full suspension, I don't need flexible spokes as a suspension element. I prefer them light and strong. My bike is suitable for all weather. I need time to put some Boeshield on my nipples. You still have a valuable customization. But honestly, after a few months of punishment the wheels stay straight and correct and I haven't had to do much tuning other than see if they tune.
