Wire wheel spokes
#8
I just had a set of Riley 9 wheels rebuilt here in NZ and the receipt says they used "8g galv spokes and nipples". I needed 240 of them at NZ$4.50 each. That's about £2.25 so the price there seems comparable.

I guess 8g is 8 gauge but I can't measure them for you as I haven't got them back yet. They are also going to fit and balance new tyres for me but we are waiting for those to arrive from the UK.

Next time I speak to the chap I will ask him what the difference is between spokes. He also builds wheels for replica WW1 aircraft apparently.
