Orim Spoke Straight Pull Oxide Black (Assorted)
What Is It?
The Orim Straight Pull Spoke – Oxide Black (Assorted) is a bicycle wheel spoke designed for straight-pull hub systems, finished in a dark oxide/black coating for corrosion resistance and a clean aesthetic.
Unlike traditional J-bend spokes, straight-pull spokes connect directly into the hub flange, offering improved alignment, strength, and wheel stiffness. The “assorted” designation usually means mixed lengths or sizes, used for wheel building or repairs where different spoke lengths are needed.

- Oxide black finish for corrosion resistance and styling
- High-tensile steel construction
- Designed for improved wheel stiffness and strength
