Spokes keep breaking - bad hub or bad build? Checked the hole of the broken spoke. I can't see any countersink on either side. Are my eyes bad or could this old hub possibly not have countersinks? |

Spokes keep breaking - bad hub or bad build? "burrs would be worn away with use." - my thoughts exactly! Very interesting theory. I'll check the hub as soon as I get home! |

Spokes keep breaking - bad hub or bad build? Sorry, can you clarify/rephrase this bit: "The first in each series of breaks will be at the flange"? I'm not sure what you mean. I mostly agree on the last part, though my budget would prefer to actually get what I already paid for. |

Spokes keep breaking - bad hub or bad build? Very good input, thanks. The shop never advised me to check spoke tension regularly, nor to come back for a tune up. My feeling is, if they had any doubts they could build the wheel strong enough to handle me, or if they deemed the hub unfit for the rebuild, they should have declined the job (which was actually their suggestion). I do agree, that if they refuse to rebuild the wheel, I should cut my losses. I've spent more time on this wheel already than I care to :-) |

Spokes keep breaking - bad hub or bad build? I'm overwhelmed! Within a few hours: 3 answers with lots of useful input from very knowledgeable people. I'm out travelling this week and have limited Internet access (and obviously won't be able to visit the store). Thanks, @zenbike :-) |
