This spoke is not just a replacement part, it´s an investment in the longevity and ride quality of your sophisticated cycling machine.The advanced design of the Competition spoke delivers a host of benefits for the discerning cyclist. Its straight-pull configuration eliminates the traditional J-bend, which is a common stress point in conventional spokes, resulting in a stronger, more durable wheel that´s better equipped to handle the high-torque forces from pedaling and disc braking. Furthermore, the double-butted profile, which is thinner in the center (1.8mm) and thicker at the ends (2.0mm), intelligently reduces weight without compromising strength. This reduction in rotational mass contributes to faster acceleration and a more lively, responsive feel on climbs and sprints. The unique T-head design ensures a secure, rotation-free fit in compatible hub flanges, maximizing power transfer and simplifying the wheel-truing process.Main Features:* Straight-Pull Design: Provides a direct, uninterrupted path from hub to rim for superior strength, stiffness, and power transfer.* T-Head Interface: A specialized head shape that locks securely into compatible Specialized/Roval hubs, preventing spoke twist and ensuring optimal load distribution.* Double-Butted Profile: Offers a significant weight saving in the central section, reducing rotational inertia for quicker acceleration while maintaining high tensile strength at the threads and head.* OEM Precision: Engineered as the exact replacement part to maintain the original performance, safety, and integrity of your Specialized wheelset.---Technical Specifications:* Product Name: SPECIALIZED Competition Straight-Pull T-Head Spoke* Brand Part Number / SKU: Spk Dt, Competition, 269mm, Straight-Pull, T-Head, 14g, 2..8mm Scos20269s05000284)* Length: 269 mm* Type: Straight-Pull* Head Type: T-Head* Gauge: 14G* Diameter Profile: Double-Butted (2.0 / 1.8 / 2.0 mm)* Primary Attribute: Road Cycling* Secondary Attribute: Spokes---Compatibility:This 269mm spoke is the specified replacement part for the following Specialized bicycle models and years.
