Hello, can anyone please tell me the spoke lengths for a Commando rear disk hub in a 18 inch rim and front disk hub in a 19 inch rim. I need to figure out the lengths required for a non standard rim to hub offsets. Thanks .... Richard.
 
not sure about the rear but the front has 4 different spokes, but you may not be able to use the standard spokes with another rim, the disc front is a very different spoke design, the spokes on one side of the hub go to the opposite side holes in the rim. you wont find an aftermarket rim drilled and dimpled the same way.
 
Thanks, I am going to use standard rims with standard spoke patterns but need to change the offset of the rear. Fitting into an Enfield Interceptor which has (insert swear word here) brakes . Richard
 
The front factory rim holes are drilled at such extreme angles compared to after market rims, non factory rim tends to bind/bow at least one row of the 4 different lengths, which Buchanan him self says its nothing to worry about and a few other Norton and non Norton wheel builders I asked. Rear factory spokes allow re-tensioning to shift rim to RH at least 3/8" more. Buchanan might even have your weird combo specs on file if ya ask.
