Hate to ask dumb questions, but this one is keeping me awake. Is there such a thing as Left and
Right spokes. I had a wheel laced a few weeks ago and took the spokes and nipples to the wheel
builder and he calls me back the next day and says..am going to have to charge you an extra $10.00
(because) all the spokes you gave me are Left Side spokes. I immediately said...I thought spokes are
the same and there is no Left and Right spokes...reply was (well the rim has a Left side and a right
side, so you need spokes that are Left and Right). I now wonder (was he trying to rob me on the
spoke thing or is there really a L & R spoke??)
