Lucked out at the Trek store, Vince said he could fix me up while I waited. Then he had a devil of a time truing the wheel and eventually asked me how many spokes I'd broken.
Six? Eight? I'm not sure at this point, but now I know this is a sign that the wheel itself is at the end of its life. Crap.
I asked another mechanic I know about it and he suggested building me a 36 spoke rear wheel. I pointed out that I had a 36 and I was breaking spokes. How about maybe a 40?
