OLD RACING BIKE..................I dont suppose anyone has got an old racing bike or an old mountain bike lying around rusting. Im after the spokes of the wheels. preferably a racing bike off around 30 inch frame, or bigger as they have the longer and thicker spokes, should be around 300 mm in length.

ok, i'll tell you all. PIGEON BOUNCER WIND SPREADERS, the spokes on the racing bikes are long Enough and are threaded at one end so you can secure them to an UDHDT PIECE OF PLASTIC, When i can locate some off that as well, have a look at the pics and you will see what im on about.
Frontal view of the block, behind the rubber grommets are the 2 to3mm nuts.
this pic shows the wire bent at a 90 degree angle going through the block, and held on the other side by a 2 to 3mm nut, hence the spokes, they are the same thread and length, preferably wire about 300 to 320 mm, bike spokes perfect for the job.
