Hallo Chaps,I want to send a pair of Z900A4 wheels off for a re spoke.
Looked on Central Wheels and Devon rims websites and can't see 'Gold' nipples ,(passive plate?). Any one know where I can get them done like original?

Pauls dead right with his above comment !!!!!!!!

I used Central Wheels Birmingham a few years back to make me 2 sets of Spokes ( i.e. 4 Wheels worth ) of 4mm Stainless Steel spokes for 2 SR500's I was then building , when I finally got em back here to OZ after much F@#king about on their part & this was despite me sending them Pattern Spokes to follow ..... they still managed to buggered it up !!!!!!!!!!!!! When I started building/lacing the wheels I found the spoke blind end angles of 72 spokes were wrong by 10 degree's & I had to then make a jig & re-bend them myself before i could finally build & true the wheels ! I for one would never use them again = Caveat Emptor ! Johny Brando
