Description
The Berd PolyLight 14g Spoke is a 280mm long, white spoke designed for building lighter wheels at a lower total build cost. Made with PolyLight polymer technology, it is one of the lightest spokes available, saving 100 to 200 grams per wheelset. It features a 1.8mm cross section for improved aerodynamics and has a 14 gauge (2.0mm) stainless threaded connection at the rim, which includes a flat section to prevent twisting during installation.
This spoke is compatible with all standard hub and rim connections and can be trued and maintained like steel spokes. It offers greater strength and fatigue resistance than most spokes, as well as improved vibration damping for a smoother ride. A custom coating enhances abrasion resistance, and the integral eyelet allows connection to J-bend or straight pull hubs.
The spoke is sold individually. Double square locking nipples are recommended (not included) and can be purchased using part numbers DT647 or PM78470. Assembly requires the Berd Supplemental Kit BO2924, which includes eyelet rods, an eyelet hook, and a hub deburring tool (one kit per wheelset). Note that Berd spokes have unique lengths and require using Berd-specific spoke measuring methods.
This product is a special order item with availability dependent on lead times, generally around 1-2 weeks if out of stock.
