hello

a quick question for the wheelbuilders on this site.
I have been given a set of fulcrum racing 5 wheels,the problem is that they have been left in the garage for a few years.the hubs are fine,the spokes are fine,but the nipples are all corroded and some of them have been rounded off.i have managed to loosen them and want to know where I can get some new nipples to replace them.

thanks

ray

    If they are standard nipples (square section 3.25 mm wide, 12 mm long) then cyclebasket should be able to send you a bag. I've got a big jar of them, if you are desperate
