Spoke sizes
I am building my first set of wheels using Phil Wood high flange track hubs and Velocity Deep V rims, both with 32 holes. I don't know what size spokes I need. I have tried using spoke length calculators online but I don't have all the info they require. I can't measure the parts because they haven't been delivered yet. Does anyone know what size spokes I need?

 ? Your best bet is to wait until the parts arrive and then get your spokes. This will ease the hassle and expense of getting spokes, finding they're the wrong size when the parts do arrive, and having to order all new spokes. Spokes aren't cheap when you're ordering 64 of them. Especially if they are special orders and/or painted, anodized, bladed, whatever.

Re: Spoke sizes
Email Velocity,
Give them the rim name and size, the hub name and model and the lacing pattern and they will give you the spoke length.
