I'm all for participating and contributing...but I will not support the obvious

lack of willingness for someone to do a search on the obvious - in this case "DT Swiss Spokes".

If you have the Inet skills to arrive here and post - then you certainly have the Inet skills to use Google, Bing and Yahoo.

A simple search pulls up dozens of providers within the first two pages - including none other than Harris Cyclery for which the website suggests an offering of custom cutting starting with blanks - which normally start at 305mm

or 310mm depending upon the brand. A one minute phone call followup would have

confirmed or led elsewhere - including LBSes. (My CN imports are all 310mm)

Of course as well already know - someone else already addressed the Union- Berg / Robergel aspect of the request - a request which is understandable and for which I have no problem with for the obvious reason.
