I'm trying to build my first wheel. Pretty sure I can figure it out once I have everything I need, but the spoke calculators are driving me nuts. I purchased the wheel pro book, which is great.
I followed his instructions and measured my hub, which is a 150mm Hadley.
Measured ERD for my 823 at 530 using two cut spokes
The spoke hole center to center are 59mm
I measured the end of the hub to drive side flange at 49mm
End to rotor side flange at 44mm
This gives me his 'C' and 'D' of 31 and 26mm, which are the measurement from the flanges to the centerline.
All is dandy and I enter my numbers and get L:255.6 R:255.0
But then I enter the
Numbers at prowheelbuilder. They use different measurements for the calculator but they are the end to flange measurements instead of center to flange.
So I use the same measurements but with L:44 R:49
I get spoke lengths at L:257 R:256.5
This is driving me nuts. I just want to get the right spokes so I can build this wheel. What am I doing wrong?
