Re: Broken spokes
As Ray mentions, worth getting (both) wheels rebuilt with quality (DT or
other) spokes. If its happening at the hub end, it may also be poor fit into the hole- face of the hub. I used to do one a month on a crappy STX-RC rear on my mtb commuter The pulling off from the ights scenario is probably due to the 'torqueing windup' that occurs due to the power transfer from the drive- side of the hub to the non-drive side. the non-drive side 'catches' up and gets twisted placing huge forces on hub/spokes (this is all incremental, mind). Is there any consistency of spoke location/side? Love to see a 'wheel-building-machine'! Have images of 'Go-Gadget' contraption with telescopic arms flying all over the place  -- |
