definately. threads will poke out by about 2mm and the you will run out of thread before that. of course moulson book suggests you can round up quite a bit. this though is wrong. the times I have done this the spoke always pokes out a bit too much. spoke stretch when stress relieved and the spokes bed into the hub as well.

Been away for a bit, sorry to drag this up again but in this case the spokes I plan to reuse would be 1.5mm longer than spoke calc says is needed... is this still a no?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
