Carbon spokes for mtb . Good or bad . I removed my cx rays for some carbon spokes and so far so good . I'm trying to get my full suspension lighter than 6.3kg . So far these spokes have taken over 40 grams off . They are flat bladed .

Interesting, what kind of spokes are they, which brand, and what are their specifications? Weight, strength? 40 gram off each wheel?
Have you tested riding with the wheels, do you experience any difference in feel with the carbon spokes other than the weight?
