This evening I measured every spoke´s thickness in the wheel with caliber.
There was 9 pieces 2.2 mm and 9 pieces 2.5 mm spokes on the brake side and 6 pieces 2.2 mm and 12 pieces 2.5 mm spokes on the cable side. I didn´t notice that earlier because I have a poor near sight.
No wonder if some nibbles are rounded. Try to turn 2.2 mm nibble into 2.5 mm thread!

Perhaps this child who assembled this wheel had borrowed spokes from the another production line.


I just measured every spoke on both wheels in the previous pictures and they are all 2.2mm

I just attempted to take as straight on as possible a picture of a front mini motor in a 26 inch rim. You can clearly see how it is dished. Hope this helps.
