SAPIM Race Double Butted J-Bend Spoke
The SAPIM Race is a double-butted spoke that offers an excellent balance of lightness, strength, and flexibility. This specific model features an extended threaded section.
By making the center section thinner than that of a plain-gauge spoke, the Race reduces weight while allowing the wheel as a whole to have a moderate amount of flex. This makes it easy to build a wheel that is neither too stiff nor fatiguing, while still retaining the responsive feel characteristic of a sports bike.
As one of SAPIM's most versatile models, it can be used for a wide range of applications, including road, gravel, all-road, cyclocross, MTB, and touring. Rather than aiming for the extreme performance of pre-built wheels, the Race serves as an excellent benchmark when you want to design a wheel tailored to the rider and the intended use.
We recommend this spoke if you are looking for the perfection of a durable, hand-built wheel rather than just chasing low weight. It is a highly practical SAPIM classic that wheel builders rely on, knowing that "you can't go wrong choosing this."
