Shimano 105 wheel question

[biker jk]

Could anybody tell me the dimensions of the spokes on the Shimano 105 (WH-5600) wheels, specifically the width and depth of the spokes (eg. 2.2mm x 1.1mm). I don't have a set of vernier calipers and using a ruler isn't very accurate. Any help would be very appreciated.

There are exploded views in the Technical docs that might answer your question

I didn't actually down load the diagrams. I would have thought the info you wanted would be there
Are you going to respoke?

I have Shimano WH-R550 wheels at home, when I get home I can check them for you, (I also have Dial Calipers) I would think they are the same spokes as yours. I will post later tonight, not sure what your time will be where your at

Replacement Spoke Kits are available from Shimano for all of their recent wheels.

See the PDF for part number.

That would be most appreciated.

That would be most appreciated.

I come up with .060" (1.524mm) thick, X .100" (2.54mm) wide.

Hope this helps, sorry about forgetting to post the size.
