Carbon spokes for RAW!
The FFWD RAW wheels come with carbon spokes from VONOA. They deliver unique characteristics to a wheelset. An increase of stiffness while maintaining a perfect level of comfort. You will be surprised!
Choose your length by model and side of the front or rear wheel.
Spokes are sold per piece including the specific HEX5.5 nipple.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Please note that the nipples squares, visible from the outside of the rim, are only to keep the spoke in a fixed position during tensioning/truing. This should be done with a 3.45mm nipple key.
The adjustment of the nipple needs to be done from the inside with a HEX5.5 nipple key. The spokes use internal nipples. To adjust the spokes, the tire and tubeless tape needs to be removed.
Recommended tools for truing and adjusting are;
Parktool SW-42 and SW-15
We strongly recommend to only have a skilled and experienced mechanic work on your precious wheels!
