get in contact with Dirtworks, the Aust. distributor for both hub and rim that you are using.They have that info in their own spoke length calc. chart.

Its a good skill to learn

Follow those steps 100%, punch the details into a calculator and you should be good to go. Spocal is good, but I like the dt swiss one for ease of use. You might also be able to find the ERD on the web, but its a good idea to measure yourself anyways as its the main contributing factor to incorrect spoke calculations.
