Bicycle Spokes Australia

We've just received a large shipment of Pillar spokes which are mostly specd for eBike wheels. Our range has expanded to now include Pillar 12G, Single Butted 12/13G & 13/14G, double square DSN 13G ni***es, 13G reduction ni***es, and regular 12G ni***es. These will be available on the webshop in the next week.

We're now stocking Pillar PSR Wing 21 bladed spokes in black J-Bend in all lengths from 251 to 282mm to cover most aero wheels. This is the first time we've stocked bladed spokes which are a lot more complex stock with regards inventory. We will grow the range of available lengths over time and include silver and straight-pull variations. The Pillar Wing 21 is an aero spoke based on singular forging of the aero blade with a unique aerofoil profile. This has positive benefits both in terms of aerodynamics and lateral stiffness (the Wing 21 spokes have a cross-sectional area that is equivalent to a 14g straight gauge spoke). The spokes are also compatible with all hub fl**ge spoke holes >2.3mm. Whether you need a replacement spoke, or enough to build a new wheelset, we now have a bladed spoke option for you.

Our range of spokes continues to grow. Check out the sidebar in this picture to see how many gauges and spoke types we now offer. This week we are happy to welcome two new Pilar PSR TB (triple butted)spokes to our product range. The Pilar PSR TB 2018 spokes has the following dimensions 2.2/1.8/2.0 and is an excellent all purposed spoke. The Pilar PSR TB 2015 is excellent lightweight butted spokes with the following dimensions 2.2/1.5/2.0.

We've just recieved a large order of new spokes this week from Sapim and Pillar. Everything from 15g to 12g, straight pull & j-bend, double butted, plus a new range of rim washers and ni***es. These are all filling gaps in the range of what we currently offer. We'll have these available on the webshop soon.

Correct spoke lengths is the foundation of a good wheel build. In our latest blog post we take on the topic of how to measure Effective Rim Diameter (ERD), for the purpose of accurate spoke length calculations. We also feature a purpose built tool… our BSC Tools ERDT rim rods which are now available on the webshop. https://www.bicyclespokes.com.au/blog/what-is-the-effective-rim-diameter-and-how-do-you-measure-it

We're always adding new wheel buildings tools and components to our webshop. Recent additions include DT Swiss Squorx alloy ni***es, the DT Squorx bit driver, Enve internal ni***es, and a range of high quality & affordable T-handle spoke wrenches from Icetoolz (available in 3.2mm SqDr, 5.5mm Hex, and 3/16" Hex).

Sourcing a suitable spoke wrench for eBike wheels has not always been easy. However, we have a growing range of high quality spoke wrenches that are perfect for most 13g and 12g spokes and ni***es. All now available on our webshop.

A couple of changes this week. We now have an option for local pickup for our Perth based customers. You can order online and then pickup from our warehouse in O'Connor. We're adding new spokes, ni***es, tools, and related wheel building products to our webshop every week... including Wheel Fanatyk FIX which is now available in Australia.

Little details. A nice feature on the back of the Icetoolz spoke length ruler is a clear clarification on the placement of spokes for correct measurements. There is also a simple gauge for checking spoke diameter. This is one of many tools we've hand selected on our webshop. https://www.bicyclespokes.com.au/shop-1/tools

Opps! We've been a little slow on the socials.

We have lots of new products listed on our webshop. We've also introduced a sidebar with key categories listed to help make website navigation more user friendly. We have a lot more spokes, ni***es, and tools to add, but if you are familiar with the current state of the bike industry, things are moving slowly, so we do what we can.

The Park Tool SW-9 spoke wrench was introduced in early 2020 and quickly became a workshop favourite. Its now available on our webshop where we've written an in-depth description of why we like this tool so much.

Park Tool SW-9 Double-Ended Spoke Wrench (3.23 mm and 3.45 mm) — Bicycle Spokes Australia The Double-Ended Spoke Wrench (SW-9) combines two of Park Tool’s popular wrenches, the black SW-0 (3.23 mm) and the red SW-2 (3.45 mm). The orientation of the wrench heads (offset at an angle of 15 degrees) allows easier access when adjusting spoke ni***es on smaller wheels and when using an anti-...
