Spoke for 14" inch wheel kids bike

[blueST]

Anyone able to point me to where I can buy a spoke for this Carrera kids biken with 14" wheels?

It needs measuring - not all hubs and rims are the same, so spokes are all different.
Head to local bike shop.

I would also suggest that if all the other spokes are ok and tensioned, you likely don't need the missing one for the weight of a kid and what they ride...

A great value bike the Cosmos. Get a quote from a local indi bike shop.

Thanks all. I don't have the missing one, so I'll have to remove and measure one of the others. Appreciate I can take it to a bike shop, but I like to do things like this myself.

It has been a good bike, but my kid has outgrown it so it'll be getting moved on once fixed.

A bike shop with wheel building facilities will knock you one up on their spoke machine, my local has a Phil Wood one, which I’m trusted to use, one action cuts and rolls the thread onto the spoke.

Note that spoke threads are rolled and not cut if tempted to fully DIY!

Also with wee wheels like that, if still straight, its probably OK with one missing, as per the post above or you can probably still get true enough.

What a faff this has turned into. After deciding for least hassle I followed some of the advice above and went to a bike shop. There aren't many about so it was a bit of a drive. There was more carbon in there than the McLaren fab shop, but seemingly not the ability to fix a child's bike wheel. Guy was a bit grumpy too. Drove to another one, a bit friendlier and more down to eartth "don't have spokes that short mate, but I can get you a new wheel though". So I've given up, not worth spending any more time or fuel. It shall have to survive sans-spoke with the next owner.

Bike shops seem to have form for that sort of thing!

However, I think in the absence of the exact spoke length / spec then best bet would be to take another out, measure it and then get one cut down to size. Shouldn't be expensive and could likely be done by a few online suppliers and posted. Or get a spoke that matches the spec, cut it to length yourself and cut a thread on the end?
