I live in UKand Easton asked me to send the wheels back viathe dealer. They were rebuilt/tensioned and touch wood no problems since. Just did 300km some of which were on very poor road surfaces without problem. I'm prepared to accept that there are odd problems with any products but these seem to have been sorted.

You may have answered my problem. EA70's - 600 - 800 miles and I have already experienced, on separate occasions, two broken spokes on drive side. I have lost confidence in wheels but Easton UK have asked me to return to them so they can examine the wheel. And to singletrackmind: Quote "That's a build fault, not design fault. The builder simply didn't put enough tension in the wheels. Easy to fix." These are premium wheels supposedly all built to same standards by Easton - Not Joe Blogs - so presumably checked with a tension gauge.
