    You would be better off getting the same one if possible due to tensile strength etc on the spoke to avoid buckling issues. But I can't think of anywhere to get a specific Ritchey one although I imagine its another company who made them anyway.

    If you are getting a DT one then get the same butting if possible, ie straight gauge or butted and get the same length, usually measured from the centre of the round tip to the end of the spoke and you can be within 1 or 2 mm for a single replacement.

    Most good local bike shops should have them and will save you on postage...
