System Aluminum Straight-Pull Spokes - Single Wheel - Black
Looking for some inspiration? Check out our custom wheel build gallery to see how others have built their wheels.
The Industry Nine Straight Pull hubs you've selected require the use of Industry Nine's proprietary aluminum straight-pull spokes. If you didn't intend to make this selection, you may hit the Previous Component button above to go back and select different hubs. Otherwise, read on to learn more about these insanely cool spokes!
Industry Nine aluminum spokes are about 25% larger in diameter compared to your standard 14-gauge steel spoke. I9 machines the spokes using 7075-T651 aluminum, giving them excellent tensile strength. Most traditional steel spokes are the “J-Bend” style, where the head of the spoke is curved 90-degrees where it seats to the hub. At the rim, the spoke threads into a spoke nipple. Industry Nine does away with all of this. Since the spoke is aluminum, it allows them to CNC-machine the entire spoke body, threads, and nipple – all in one. Instead of using the J-Bend design, the spoke is straight, and threads directly into the hub. The “spoke nipple” is not a separate piece – it is machined into the spoke. By combining everything into one tidy straight-pull package, the spokes are less prone to fatigue and stress failure. This setup also lends much great stiffness compared to a traditional steel J-Bend spoke wheelset.
