Nice.

Do I have to use special spokes or is it just the nipples that are funky?

Any idea what size spoke tool?

Any 2mm spokes should be good.
Being prolock, don't oil the threads as the locking compound acts as a lube whilst building.

DT red handle spoke wrench. Or Park tools 3-way would fit the square drive :-)

Cheers, I'll see if I can find a 'mostly plastic' spoke key to suit if I go with this rim, just for the race, the build will be done by @scherrit hopefully. Hmm, maybe I should get that spare 808 built up... :P
