Default Spoke...broke
Washing my scooter on Sat. morning & found a brken spoke on my rear wheel. I have the profile lace wheels. Sent the wife to the dealer while I was busy with other things. She comes home & says the dealer will only sell a complete set of spokes. WTF. Oh well, I guess I 'll have lost of spares. Perhaps some of you would like to buy an individual spoke? Perhaps if I had the standard wheels they would have had a spoke in the service dept. without buying a complete set of 40.
