Hi All,
I need a new set of spokes and nipples for my 21" Harescrambler wheel, straight hub. Does anyone have some they could part with, or does anyone know what other bike brand might fit properly? I don't want to go the stainless route. I know they're stronger and better, but the expense is out of my range. Thanks in advance!

Jeez Mick, the title of this thread kind of threw me there for a minute. :D

Oh, make that on a leather collar, too!

I've gotten spokes and nipples from Al Buehner to replace broken or missing spokes. There is a bit of a difference in some vintages, though. Contact him and maybe send him a good photo of the nipple or better yet a sample of the spoke and nipple and he can match it up. These are the plain, painted spokes and plated nipples and stock items.
Type at you later,
