Don't know if this helps...but here's a suggestion for a substitute if necessary.

Ohio spokes from the mid-90s. They were stainless steel - however - instead of

semi-polish like DT-Swiss - they were actually unpolished given them something close to a zinc spoke look. The look was somewhat mottled though.

The heads will have 3 dots arranged in a triangle config - no triangle - just three dots.

(They were blown out by Trek in the mid-90s at a penny apiece.)
