Help me find spokes!!!!
So i'm planning on doing a lot of work to my bike this winter. We just got snow here in Fargo, ND so it's go time!!
One of the changes i'm making is lacing the stock rear wheel hub to a 5.75x18 in rim from J&P cycles details here: http://www.jpcycles.com/product/200-326
I was planning on following rebelrangers write up: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...ear-wheel.html but the spoke set he used http://www.jpcycles.com/product/202-019 has been out of stock for the last month and j&p told me they have no idea when they will be in :/
There was another set of spokes for custom 18 inch rims on their site but the Harley Tech on the J&P chat told me that this set is 9mm shorter so he couldn't guarantee they would fit.
So now i'm ready to tear my bike down and send everything to powder but I have no spokes which will be coated black.
Ultimately he told me I need 208mm spokes for a flat flange hub to have the same as the spokes out of stock. Does anybody have any info to help me out?
Thanks for your help!

i buy all my spoke from HD wheels... after time and time again of dealing with the wrong spokes being sent, i was sick of it... i pay for the quality now and get them from HD wheels... never been wrong, always ships on time, top quality... we then powder them as we need for the order. i run HD wheels polished twisted on mine, 5 years old now and look like the day i laced them
