It says what sizes it comes in on the page... I think the main one is

Ummm... in that case you would weld pegs of some kind to the frame,

SS 14g 36er Spokes breaking
The problem with short spokes it that it means fewer threads are engaged
in the nipple. This should cause failure at the nipples, not at the
hub.
Breakage at the elbows is typically caused by the...
