@Poynt - thanks for that! Mini’s are half the weight. I will weigh some standard plastic housing and some spare Nokons too. I might have some of the white Tune housing to weigh too. Anybody have the 2007 carbon Nokons?

@hamiltong17 - if you have 3 unused links can you weigh them?

@Nefarious86 - yes bring back the early Nineties purple! This housing is an excellent value at $12 per meter.

@KarlC - thanks for the link. I forgot about Nino from the MTBR site. I remember buying a Lightning crankset from him years ago.

I have some white inner Tune, as before 215mm at 2.51g or 0.20g eqiv to 3 links of mini in the 4mm. I also have some ordinary black outer called vs turbo plus that is 3.54g for 215mm piece or 0.30g/3links of mini. I always found the Tune too stiff though.

Berd says only white is available at the moment. Who knows, maybe Godzuki26 will be the first person to dye these spokes :lol:
