Hi Vasia, I’m currently using a tinned copper wire. In the past, I’ve also used the tinned iron wire from DT Swiss; the iron wire worked well but would rust.
HI, I USE ARALDITE SUPER STRENGTH EPOXY IN THE DOUBLE TUBE , ONCE MIXED I USE A MATCH STICK WITH A LITTLE BIT ON THE END AND DAB THE WIRE, IT DRYES CLEAR AND LOOKS NCE WITH THE COPPER, I ALSO DO 9 LOOPS WITH 2.5 MM COPPER FROM J CAR, THEY SELL IT THERE, THAT IS ONE OF MANY WAYS I BET
nice work, i use 2.5 mm copper wire and epoxy glue rather than solder,gives a nice finish with the black spokes

Jet Bicycle Wheels what is the gauge of the wire? Any recommended brand?
I have the same question as vasia haha
Hi Paul, Epoxy is an interesting approach. What epoxy do you use, and how do you apply it?

I like how you cut wire at end 😁

Hi, nice video question what is the diameter of the wire?
To my eye that looked like 24 AWG wire.
I would love to know where he got that roll.
