I'm going to be trueing a wheel built with bladed spokes that I got with a
bike. The wheels are Campagnolo Neutrons. I could get the LBS to do it, but
I like to fix these things myself and have trued more traditional wheels
quite a few times before.
I understand there is a special tool to stop the bladed spokes from turning.
Can anyone tell me what this looks like? I'd imaging a slot in a bit of
wood cut with a hacksaw blade might do the job. Comments?
While I'm on the subject, Campagnolo sell spare spoke kits for these wheels,
but they are £24 for 6 spokes, which seems a bit expensive. In case I break
one, are straight-pull spokes avaliable from the usual makes brands (DT
swiss, Sapim etc) and would they work with these wheels?
Thanks for any help,
Jim
