I need a couple spokes for the rear of a Heritage, where can I get them from without buying a whole set? and from someone that knows enough to get me what I need without having to send them the old ones so I know they'll match? Question

I didn't want your post to go unanswered but, that does not mean I have any idea where you could get them. Smile

Go to www.mikesxs.com. They have spoke sets at only $26....wait.....a Heritage is $35 since there are 64 spokes as opposed to the Special II's 36. Just think how nice brand new shiny spokes will make your ride.

I suppose you could e-mail them to see if they'd sell just a couple.

Oops, the old tried to ride off with the security chain through the rear wheel thing. Been there, done that. Can't help you on a couple of spokes though, the whole set from Mike's isn't all that expensive and if you swap 'em out one at a time it'll save you a pain lacing and truing the wheel.
