Problem is that motorcycles don't use 14-15 gauge spokes.

How many do you want to do?

Contact www.classicallparts.com.au/
and ask for 'Cyclo spoke threader/roller' Not sure if they still have them though but a few years back i was still able to get replacement rollers from them

They come from http://www.mca-aston.co.uk/

Hi All,

Thanks for the replies, I was lacing  a KT 250 front wheel today and would have been handy to have a thread roller, still got the back wheel to do . I have a collection of Trials bikes from most manufacturers I ride and a lot of Basket Cases as well.
DR 500,  my Google search turned up several hozan bicycle ones, but no bigger ones.
Cappra,  there are a few Montesas as well, even an Incomplete VA 125 surplus to needs as I only ride Trials!
Sleepy, I don't lace many wheels, but I repair a few to keep bikes  rideable.
LWC82PE, checked that website and site search came up negative, will have to email and ask. Even the rolling head would do as I am a fabricator and have a lathe, so I should be able to break Something?

If you were close you could come over and use my one. I have a Cyclo machine and most of the imperial dies.

Hi Mate,
Thanks for the offer, I am in Coffs Harbour, whereabouts are you?
Something tells me we are not close?
Is the Cyclo machine the one to get as I was hoping to get an older better quality machine?

I got one like this


Made in England so its good. Also got a Japanese made Hozan

Some of the bigger and older British bike parts suppliers in USA used to sell the Cyclo a few years back but i cant think of their names right now.

Brisbane isn't far is it?
My machine is just like the photo above and they are very simple but do the job if you have the time to turn the handle.

Sorry for the hijack but I've got a spoke threader that I've used for years, but I'm out of blank spokes. Used to get them from London Trading but have no idea where to get them now. Does anyone know??

[bazza]

central wheel components,think thats name guy here mentioned for blank spokes,in Uk some where

[LWC82PE]

London Trading became Conco Trading and they merged with McLeods
so try them

I have not bought any spokes from them for 3 or more years now so not sure if they still do them?

Thanks Leith and Mike - I'll check both out.
