  1. Got myself in a bit of trouble , ordered a pair of rims that are more aero than most others 38mm,
    exactly what I wanted them to be , but the 2003 production models with 24 holes are grouped in 6
    groups of 4 spokes.

    Basically a wheelset I need is much like the Campy Scirocco G3 , 24 radial front and 24 half
    radial/half 2 cross rear. The question I have is about the spoke length calculation I don't think
    the calculators allow for these rims, radial gives one length but radial from a lower hole in the
    hub as for this wheel would need a longer spoke length than the calculator suggest.

    Can anybody give advise on calculating spoke length for these type of patterns (I have not yet
    decided on doing this set myself(2nd set) or asking an experienced wheelbuilder)

    Thanks, Richard
