Buchanan’s Stainless Steel Spoke Sets for Classic British Motorcycles
Shop genuine Buchanan’s stainless steel spoke sets for classic Triumph, Norton, and BSA motorcycles at The Bonneville Shop. Our selection covers front and rear wheel applications with drum and disc brakes, including conical, spool, and quick-detachable hub configurations. Find application-specific sets for rebuilding an existing wheel or pairing a compatible hub with a replacement rim.
Founded by Jim Buchanan in 1958, the company is a second-generation family business. Quality stainless steel spokes made in the US. If it’s time to re-lace those old wheels this is the way to go. These spoke sets can also be polished for a chrome like finish that will last for years.
American-Made Spokes with a Long Wheel-Building History
Buchanan’s began in 1958 when Jim Buchanan founded Buchanan’s Frame Shop, offering motorcycle frame and wheel repair. The company started manufacturing its own spokes in 1971 and began supplying pre-packaged spoke kits to other wheel-repair shops by 1975. Today, Buchanan’s Spoke & Rim operates in Azusa, California, and manufactures its spoke kits on site.buchananspokes+2
Buchanan’s makes its spokes using American-drawn and certified wire, shaping and threading them for specific applications. The company describes its spoke kits as aftermarket replacements rather than exact replicas of original equipment—a useful distinction for owners balancing restoration appearance with replacement-component specifications.buchananspokes
Spoke Sets for Triumph, Norton & BSA Wheels
Our Buchanan’s collection includes stainless steel spoke sets for a variety of classic British wheel assemblies:
- Triumph: selected single-leading-shoe drum-brake front wheels, conical-hub wheels, disc-brake wheels, and rear-wheel applications for 350, 500, 650, and 750 models.
- Norton: selected Atlas and Commando drum-brake wheels, Commando disc-brake front wheels, and the Commando 850 MkIII disc-brake rear wheel.
- BSA: selected A50, A65, and B44 front wheels, 18-inch quick-detachable rear wheels, and shared Triumph/BSA conical-hub and triple applications.
Each set is listed for a particular wheel configuration. Check the motorcycle application, front or rear wheel position, brake and hub type, and rim diameter rather than choosing by motorcycle brand alone. Our collection includes both 18-inch and 19-inch applications, with separate sets for different hub designs.
Stainless Steel Finish Options
The spoke sets in this collection are listed as stainless steel. Buchanan’s also identifies polishing as an available finish option for stainless spokes and nipples. If a polished appearance is important to your build, check the individual product listing to confirm the finish supplied rather than assuming every stainless set arrives polished.thebonnevilleshop+1
Match the Spokes to Your Hub & Rim
Choosing the correct spoke set is especially important when a motorcycle has been fitted with a different rim or hub. Buchanan’s manufactures spokes for specific combinations, so a motorcycle’s original model designation may not fully describe a modified wheel assembly. Confirm the actual hub and rim configuration against the product details before ordering.
Spoke and nipple threads are not universal. Buchanan’s cautions that its components are not guaranteed to match spokes or nipples made by other manufacturers. Check the contents and specifications of your selected set before planning to reuse existing nipples.
Spoke Sets & Selected Rim Packages
Alongside individual Buchanan’s spoke sets, our collection includes selected BSA packages pairing stainless spoke sets with CWC British chrome rims. These listings offer a rim-and-spoke purchasing option, but they should not be confused with complete, assembled wheels. Review each listing for the components included and the intended wheel application.
