Wheel spokes Cn Spoke STD14 stainless steel 2.0-2.0-2.0 mm 184 mm black set with 144 nipples

Set of Cn Spoke STD14 stainless steel wheel spokes with a triple-butted profile of 2.0-2.0-2.0 mm and a length of 184 mm, finished in black. The package includes 144 matching nipples, providing a complete supply for building or repairing multiple bicycle wheels. These spokes are intended for wheel builders and cyclists who require consistent gauge, material strength and uniform length for reliable wheel assembly and maintenance.

Advantages

Stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance and long service life while maintaining adequate tensile strength for typical bicycle wheel loads. The triple-butted 2.0-2.0-2.0 mm profile provides a balance of weight and durability, with uniform thickness along the spoke for predictable tensioning and spoke behaviour. Black finish gives a discreet appearance and is compatible with a wide range of rim and hub colours. The inclusion of 144 nipples simplifies procurement and ensures compatibility between spokes and nipples for efficient wheel building.

Suitable for

• Repairing damaged spokes on road, touring or commuter wheels where 184 mm length is required
• Building new bicycle wheels with rims and hubs that match 184 mm spoke length and 2.0 mm gauge
• Bulk replacement for workshops, wheel-building services or cycling clubs

How to use

Measure existing spoke length and verify that 184 mm and the 2.0 mm gauge are suitable for your rim/hub combination before installation. Install spokes following standard lacing patterns appropriate for your wheel (e.g., 3-cross, 2-cross or radial) and thread the supplied nipples onto the spoke threads. Use a spoke holder and spoke key to bring the spokes up to preliminary tension, then true the wheel on a truing stand, incrementally adjusting spoke tension until the rim runs straight and the wheel has even spoke tension. After building, stress-relieve the wheel and recheck tension and dish before final use.

Usage recommendations

For reliable results, use a calibrated spoke tension meter during final tensioning and perform stress-relief by applying firm, even pressure to the rim or by riding short distances and rechecking tension. Replace any bent or excessively corroded nipples, and match spoke pattern and length precisely to avoid wheel imbalance or premature spoke failure.
