Reuse Original Spokes?

Post by odbuffalo »

Hey guys, Im wanting to replace my stock rims with a set of alloy ones but am keeping my stock hubs from the 72 GT750.

Is it okay to relace using my used stock spokes?

If not, other than Buchanans, does anyone have a good affordable source for spokes.
Buchanans is $106 front, $108 rear in Stainless.

Thanks

If the spokes are in good condition they can be used. That assumes that the rim you are planning on upgrading to is similar to stock ie not "drop centered".
