Yup but to order a box of 100 just for 32 spokes is not really that economical for a shop.
Spoke cutter and 14mm plain gauge and washers it is then.
I do love the Alpines though, never ever had one snap at the bend on my 48h polo wheel!

Customcutspokes and spokesfromryan also do trade accounts and no need to order boxes.

If you have a Phil or something, it’s child’s play. Measuring, cutting, filing, and rolling with a Cyclo or similar machine will take the better part of half an hour. Ordering a batch online is so much easier.

So, just like most normal hubs then🙂
I'd probably use DT Alpine III or the like for anything load bearing, they're 2.3mm at the head/bend, which is about a third more cross sectional area than 2mm spokes.
