Specialized allez sport Axis Sport 700c spoke size

[speedosteve]

Hi,
Does anyone happen to know the spoke size for an Axis sport 700c rim that comes as standard on a specialized allez sport 2021 model. I tried to measure it but the end is broken off. It seems to be 27.7cm. I get the feeling I'm going to need a few of these spokes soon!
Thanks in advance. So glad I found this forum.

Unless someone googles this for you, you have zero chance of anyone answering that off the cuff. We just don't keep stuff like that in our memory. If yiou have the broken spoke, you can easily extrapolate just by looking at adjacent spokes and doing a bit of fiddly measurement. A photo or two should help most of us to estimate the length given the 277mm remaining section.

If the head has broken off, your new spoke should be 277mm. If the thread broke off the new one will be approximately 277 + 9mm, depending on how much thread is left.

Another alternative is to just calculate the length from first principles, using a spoke calculator. You'll need to specify the rim, the hub and the number of crosses.

If you've got the wheel take an unbroken spoke off and measure it. Simples. If you can take a shed load of measurements off the hub as well as the ERD for the rim you could throw the resulting numbers in a spoke calculator but it's 50 times easier to measure an existing complete spoke. Don't go buying new spokes until you know the exact measurement otherwise you could be wasting your money.

Thanks everyone. The wheel is 150 miles away from me so I was hoping by some miracle someone might just have the answer without me having to take it apart. That way I could just turn up with the part. Thanks for the replies

Remote-sensing spoke caluclation is not an exact science.
