eh BH, mainstream brands lace their spokes radially @ non-drive side. how come urs which are laced the same, patah?

the problem with mainstream brands is, it also patah for me mar... i jus didn't learn my lesson with this current wheel...

FR7, patah both sides randomly
Xero XSR-1, patah non drive
SRAM S27 AL, patah non drive (and non-drive is actually 1 crossed, radial on drive side)
Mavic Open Pro laced to FH-6600 3-cross both side... the only one never to had a problem

i start to think i could be in a movie called broke spoke mountain...

lets just hope their spokes to pull through the hub like previous generation ones... they are notorious for that... especially when ridden by a gorilla...

ei dun ask me.. i ride bike like it was meant to be ridden...ask the manufacturers...

i am jus destined to be a wheel killer...actually... bike shop doubt me when i showed interest in FR1... the answer i got when i asked for the price was... "replacement spoke is very expensive for this"

spoke head patah... cabut from flange... i think you google it got quite some complaints one...but then i think shimano imposed a rider weight limit on their wheels lar... there is just too much fatso out there or they are too optimistic with their wheel designs...

actually the worst was the SRAM S27... killed 3 spokes in 1 month, 1 each week (i suspect it is the nipple that could not handle the twisting lar)... by the time 3rd spoke was f@ked.. they ask me to leave it there so they can claim entire wheel... after a couple of months waiting... i got bored and took it back with 4th spoke in and sold the wheel off at less than half price

my xsr-1 also very long lasting... more than half the spokes on the rear wheel have been replaced and the brake track also became concave...i had to give it up because the nipple ran out of threads and the spokes was too lose to be tensioned any harder...

actually i think my XSR-1 was even worst... paired spoke design... the wheel runs so much if the spoke breaks that i have to fully open the release lever for the rear calipers...

i own the FR7 too and that was 2:1 as well.. didn't felt that bad compared to S27 and this current wheel...

but then again.. most low spoke count wheels are generally going to be very bad if they break a spoke...

S27 sold off
XSR-1, rear still at home, front dented when crashed with the open pro
