these i gots for 50 buks in ebay the owner said it was his last pice of his bike
he did these spokes back in 98 each spoke was hand cut with a knife wat the owner said ? :dunno: how but they was with a nife
they costed him 150 buks back in the day for 1 rim
they still need plating but was this a god buy

[EC7Five]

This just gave me an idea for something...

 

[19stratus97]

I have tons of brand new spokes for 20" bikes. They are the size that go on 72 spoke wheels

 

[excalibur]

haha, the spokes sure look like drill bits. about 1/8 size. thats funny, yet creative.

 

[rd62rdstr]

A guy here in Tucson has a set of wheels with the twisted spokes chromed and ready. Wanted $200 for them , but will take $150 now. I might pick them up for my boy's bike.
