|   Professional Wheel Builder- question | Calvin Jones-Park Tool
Apr 25, 2002 10:00 AM | | Builders (or anyone) please, if you would, rank what are the 3 or 4 most common spoke diameter center section, ignoring the butting. Please consider that you see the most of, not just what you like to build with.
2.0mm
1.8mm
1.7mm
1.6mm
1.55mm
1.5mm
Thanks |

| Hmmmmm................ | Mike T.
Apr 25, 2002 11:24 AM | | ....is this a test Calvin?
My opinion is -
1.8
2.0
1.5
- and in that order too.
What did I win?
But the most common center section to me right now ('coz I'm using 'em and see 'em every day) is Sapim CX-Ray's 0.9x2.3mm blade :o) |
| I am with eMTea | shiggy
Apr 25, 2002 11:56 AM | | And I am using the CX-Rays, too.
This may be the wrong forum to reach Pro wheel builders |
| Oh I read it as............... | Mike T.
Apr 25, 2002 12:17 PM | | ....Calvin, being a Pro wheelbuilder, was asking a question! Hell, if he wanted the opinions of Pro wheelbuilders I would have kept my mouth shut. Uhhh but I guess I did charge someone for a wheelbuild onetime :o\ |
| He did add "(or anyone)" (nm) | shiggy

| Yeah I guess.............. | Mike T.
Apr 25, 2002 1:50 PM | | .....I'm as anyone as anyone I know. What was the original question? :o\ |

Apr 26, 2002 12:18 PM | | I mostly deal with straight guage 2.0, but have been doing some with 1.8 lately. I rarely build anything smaller, most people in the area are more concerned with durability than weight and very stiff wheels. |
