Does anyone know if the longer spokes are for the disc brake side or the sprocket side of the hub?
Not sure how else to explain... I'm assuming the rim is offset slightly ( I have the oem set to check against ) so one side will have a different length Smile
Bike-CR125 2006. Rim/spokes/hub are same as stock...

If I'm not mistaken the longer spokes are for the inside , on each side of the hub there's holes close to the edge and ones closer inside .. so they'll be split up half on one side half on the other . They won't all Be on one side of the hub .

Thanks for the reply Smile
Well... That sounds plausible, currently I laced all the long ones on one side and short on the other side, this has left me with every few spokes being either too long or too short ( plus the bend in the spoke is causing a slight bind on both sides )....
I'll have to have a closer look tomorrow Smile

Just an update...went with long inside and short outside...all good Smile
Now I'm assuming the rim is just supposed to be central to the hub? Or is there a different offset?

Yes rim is central on the hub, don't worry the spokes will pull it into line when Tensioning more or less like a self aligning system.
