Hi all, my mate has a voodoo hoodoo 29er that has a broken spoke. How so I find which length he needs? Is it just a case of measuring the spoke from end to end? Cheers chris

    basically yes or work it out from rim ERD and Hub info and put it all in a spoke calc.

    If the spoke is broken or part is missing then remove a complete spoke and measure. Measuring need to be done from the inside of the elbow to the end of the thread.
