Hey ppl,
My brother has asked me to help him build some wheels!!! He's never done and I have only ever trued them up so dont know what length spokes to use.
He has:
2 Halo Combat 24in rims
and Front and Rear Shimano FH-M475 Disc Hubs
I tried working it out with an online spoke calc but it told me the length of a spoke would 75.5?????
I know I did something wrong so am in need of some HELP :?
Anyone know what to do or know what spoke length I should use?
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give.....

You need to find the ERD of your rim:

Also a good build guide on here. Be patient though!0
