Vuelta Carbon Pro Tubular Wheels - I need spokes?

[Padge]

I have a set of Vuelta Carbons 2006 model. I broke a spoke on the weekend and my bike store doesn't have a supplier.
They are the large black spokes with the silver centre. They are made by Alpina.
Anyone know where I can get them?

I'd tell your bikeshop to pull their thumb out, if they're available within Aus they should know already or find out about it, you are paying them after all. If they do nothing just google your wheelset and find out who the australian distributor is and call them.

Jono L,

I've done all that. I've searched the world for a distributor but emails that I've sent just bounce back. This forum was my last resort before I put a silver Mavic SL spoke on it. It'll look out of place but at least I will be able to race on my wheels again.

Hey Nigel, just replace all of the spokes so that they'll match. Sounds like a good way to spend an afternoon, doesn't it?
