    I searched everywhere and couldn't find anything.

    I'm trying to build a new wheelset and want to use a nimbus isis hub
    with a K1 Street rim. The spokes that I'm wanting to use are 2.3mm and
    don't know if this will work with the hub.

    Any help is appreciated

    14 gauge spokes on a nimbus hub if I remember right. Get nipples to
    match that and then use the spoke calculator on UDC's site to do the
    length math. If your rim isnt listed then call UDC and they should be
    able to help you order spokes.

    Its not the nipples and length I'm really worried about, I'm just
    worried that they won't fit the hub since their not the ones that come
    with it.

    So I guess my real question is will 13 guage spokes fit a nimbus hub?

    KH and K1 hubs take 13 gage correct? Wouldnt the they make that hub to
    match.... I dont know for sure, but my guess is yes they will fit.

    I thought the same thing. But It says to order 14 guage. I don't know,
    I guess I'll just email them

    are you breaking spokes. I dont think you will have a problem with 14g.

    Naw but I figured 14 won't work with a k1 rim. I may be wrong though
