The Ouzo Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 So following an incident with a broken spoke I went through a short period where my spokes kept coming loose, so I took the wheel in to the local bike shop and asked them to sort it out. Before I took the wheel in I had trued it myself on a number of occasions and always notice a very slight out of roundness on the wheel. Since I could not feel it while riding I left it. Getting the wheel back from the LBS i'm sure the out of roundness is more pronounced. I cant say for sure that it is, but what I can say is that I now feel it when I ride. Can it be fixed or is it new wheel time ? I assume it happened because of the spokes, or the spokes broke because of the buckle.
DR ◣◢ Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Get a second opinion from a reputable wheel builder.

DR ◣◢ Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Maybe start by telling the class exactly where you are from...
Johan Bornman Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Have a good look to see if it isn't the tyre that's out of round. If not, find a good bike shop. The downside of keeping your profile super secret is that we don't know where you are and can't make a recommendation. Maybe you're in Siberia?
