Choosing the Right Spokes
The correct spoke type and size help keep your wheel true and able to handle daily riding. The most common options include:
- J-bend spokes – the standard choice for most 26”, 27.5”, 29” and 700c wheels.
- Straight-pull spokes – used on many factory-built and performance wheels.
- Aero spokes – bladed options designed for improved aerodynamics.
Most Positz spokes include matching nipples, and we also offer bulk 144-pack workshop quantities for wheel builders.
Compatibility
Our 14G (2mm) spokes suit a wide range of rims and hubs commonly found on:
- Shimano hubs
- DT Swiss rims
- Formula and Novatec hubs
- Standard road, MTB and hybrid wheels
They can be used for replacing damaged spokes, building new wheels, or keeping spare sets on hand. If you are replacing a single spoke, match the length, gauge and type to your existing wheel.
Replacing a Spoke
A spoke can be replaced in a few straightforward steps:
- Remove the tyre and rim tape.
- Unscrew the nipple and remove the damaged spoke.
- Fit a new spoke following the same lacing pattern.
- Tension and true the wheel using a spoke wrench.
Stainless steel spokes offer excellent corrosion resistance and are a reliable upgrade for everyday riding.
FAQs – Bicycle Spokes
How do I find the right spoke length?
Measure an existing spoke from the same side of the wheel or use a spoke length calculator based on rim, hub and lacing pattern.
Can I replace just one spoke?
Yes. If the rest of the wheel is in good condition, replacing a single spoke is fine as long as the wheel is re-trued afterwards.
Are stainless steel spokes worth it?
They resist rust and fatigue better than basic steel spokes, making them a longer-lasting choice for most riders.
What gauge are most bicycle spokes?
Most wheels use 14G (2mm) spokes, suitable for a wide range of road, MTB and commuter wheels.
Do I need special tools?
A spoke wrench matched to your nipple size is essential. A truing stand is helpful but not required.
