UNIVERSAL NEEDLES

UNIVERSAL SPOKESThe spokes of the wheels of many bikes have the same diameter and the threads on the end, for example, “Ural”, “Kama”, “Salute”, “Student”, “Levushka”, and others. However, the length of the spokes, almost all different, and Ural’s needles are the longest, and therefore a few pieces from him that I keep in reserve. In the absence of regular spokes these brands do so. Take the needle from “Ural”, pruned to the desired size and prepare the shank with pliers, as shown in the figure. Setting the needle in place — RICHT wheel.
