no, jamie imports them, they cost £75 per wheel if only spokes are bought and less if the wheel is built by the guys at balfa aswell.

the usa site is just so that you can choose what colour/lengths etc, and phone balfa uk.

cheers, jake

p.s well done mr. barnard on your recent slopestyle win.

20p will be per nipple!!

The spokes are made by Marwi USA and are £75.00 per wheel for a 26" wheel. Less for a 20" wheel obviously.
Thats if you buy just the spokes and they are 75g lighter per wheel than DT Competition Double Butted spokes.
Its a £50.00 per wheel upcharge when bought with wheels.

the spinergy spokes are made from some kind of funky fibre stuff, but they will only fit spinergy rims and hubs.

Alternativly you could just get some black spokes, sand them down and respray any colour you wanted...


whats the fascination with having 'pimp' spokes anyway?!

the Spinergy spokes again in the uk are from Jamie his shop is a service centre for spinergy wheels! I believe he carrys a few spares in stock. But as people have said above the spokes will only fit a spinergy hub!

PBO is a technology owned and used only by Spinergy.
They are the right length for their hub/rim combos and have different heads and nipples to the norm.
