Zipp CX-Ray J-Bend Spokes

Yes, these are standard J-bend spokes designed to fit any hub that accepts this classic spoke style. However, you must ensure the 290 mm length is correct for your specific rim depth and hub flange diameter before purchasing.

The bladed, or flat, profile is engineered to slice through the air more efficiently than round spokes. This aerodynamic shape helps reduce drag, which can provide a slight speed advantage at higher cycling velocities.

Each package contains three spokes. If you are rebuilding an entire wheel, you will need to calculate the total number of packages required based on your wheel's spoke count.

While these spokes are built for durability and strength, they are primarily designed for high-performance road and gravel applications. They are suitable for trail riding, but ensure your wheel build is appropriate for the specific demands of your terrain.

Because these spokes are bladed, you will need a bladed spoke holder tool during installation. This prevents the spoke from twisting while you tighten the nipple, ensuring the blade remains properly aligned for aerodynamics.
