I have new Buchanan spokes and have re-laced my wheel twice. Both leave me with spokes that are way too long. I don't mean by a few threads.. I mean too long to where I don't have enough thread to make the nipple tight. I have to be missing something because I sent my inner and outer spokes to Buchanan and they were matched.

:banghead

I just want to get the bike mocked up and go for a ride. Too much to ask?!

It is the front and I was able to see that I wasn't setting the pattern wide enough. Got it laced up now. Thanks!
