  1. They were made in 2002. I want to rebuild the wheel with new spokes but
    I don't know and can't find the ERD. I know I could find the ERD by
    measuring it but I would have to despoke it, and I don't want to do
    that until I have the new spokes ready at hand.

    Call around and see if anybody has the Wheelsmith measuring rods. I may
    have it at work, call me.

    I suggest you pull one spoke from the wheel and measure it.
    Ambrosio is making a Excelight S.S.C rim shown at:
    ambrosiospa.compag108.htm
    They don't list the ERD.
    Ital-tecno sells this model:
    AMBROSIO Excellite Clincher; maybe a call to them @
    1-800-210-8830 will get you the answer.

  4. One reason for the rebuild is that the original wheel builder used some
    spokes that were too short. Some spokes on the drive side just barely
    engaged the nipple threads. Also the wheel has about four different
    spoke lengths.
