    Do I need to make sure that both wheels have the same spoke count or is that not necessary

            Doesnt matter if front has 32 and rear has 36fx.
            The bike doesnt care, and theyre made to last on the bike youre taking them from in the first place.

              @declan As @finnerz89 said the rim and hub needs to have the same number of spokes. You can have different numbers from front to back as @Jens-Eskildsen said, but bear in mind that the more spokes you have the stronger the wheel will be. Most bikes are either 36 or 40 spokes per wheel. 😉

              SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!

                  Nope, most are different. They can even have the same spoke-count, but the angle which the spokes are mounted can be different, the same goes with the length of them.
