Looking for a couple of spare spokes for both front and rear rims for a long upcoming trip. Dealer will only sell complete sets. Willing to pay something fair.

Ordered two front and two rear as insurance for our planning summer trip.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Aren't there 3 different front spokes? Maybe it's two, can't remember. Or did you mean 2 spares for each of the various types?

Does Woody's sell the Yamaha OEM spokes or an aftermarket alternative? I've heard the aftermarket ones don't quite fit perfectly leading to premature breakage or worse, cracked wheels.

I know they have a bunch of OEM from Stainless conversions.
I have the Stainless spokes from them so far so good.
I have been probably the most connected Tenere owner Woody has had to deal with less a dinner at Woody's home after all the issues a I had with my Tenere Woody rear wheel.
They worked with my issue till the end.
These guys do care about what they do.

So what were your issues and what was the solution? I'd love to use stainless spokes but I don't want to suffer breakage issues.

Issues was the rear wheel, you would need to go back on my threads to see what I am talking about 18" rear didn't work for me.
All the replacement parts and rims where covered by woody including shipping. In the end wound up with the Yam 17" rear rim kept the 21" front.
The Stainless spokes have never broke on me...
