Hi All
I'm swapping a hub over - the measurements from Edd I get are:

Hub Shimano Deore XT FH-M756L, rear Rim Mavic XM319 (2014) Spokes 32
Crosses 3 Spoke length left 289.7 mm Spoke length right 288.5 mm

I have 290mm spokes already - will I get away with reusing them?

290 is what you'd buy if the calc said 289.7, but for the 288.5 you'll want 288mm spokes.

If it was mine for me and I didn't have 288s knocking about I'd build it up and see, probably OK, if it was for someone else I'd get some 288 in.
