What Is It?
The Pillar Aero Spoke Black Oxide Straight Pull 270mm is a premium bladed straight-pull bicycle spoke engineered for lightweight, aerodynamic, and high-performance wheelsets. Manufactured from Pillar's proprietary T302+ stainless steel using advanced cold-forging technology, it delivers an outstanding combination of strength, fatigue resistance, and elasticity for long-lasting wheel performance.
The straight-pull design eliminates the traditional J-bend to reduce stress concentrations and improve spoke alignment, while the aero bladed profile helps minimise aerodynamic drag for greater efficiency. Finished in Black Oxide, the spoke offers a sleek appearance with enhanced corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for road, gravel, and mountain bike wheel builds.
