I'm having a bit of a nightmare trying to source a straight 304mm bladed spoke + nipple in black for the Rear RS10. Called several LBS in the area but they don't have in stock and are quoting me ridiculous money like £20+ for the fix and it may take several days to order them in etc.
The cheapest I could find online is about £8.50 for the two including postage which still seems like a LOT for such a small but important piece of wire. The whole wheel can be bought new for £50-£60, probably a lot cheaper SH.
Is there a compatible spoke I could use instead? Is it worth buying a SH one and taking it apart for spares considering the risk for future snapping spokes?
