I broke another spoke (my 3rd) on my rear wheel on my way home from work last night. I rode into Boehms and Ben replaced it on the spot.

I'm tired of breaking spokes, so next week they're going to replace all of them with something better.

Thanks again, Ben!

Boehms in Mendota is my first choice of shops. I had a broken spoke in my rear wheel(gear side). Went to Penn on a Thursday, they said I could pick it up on Tuesday. For a broken spoke! Went to Boehms and they fixed it in about tem minutes.

The service area is about the only thing worth a compliment at Boehm's. Probably one of the worst run bike shops in the twin cities or maybe even the world. That's just my opinion, take it as you will.

Don't ever talk to Tom at Boehm's if you want a good experience.

Where did you get the wheel from? I know Freewheel purchased a bunch of wheels with a badly designed spoke that the heads keep shear off of. I had one on Saturday that Freewheel warrantied so I ended up with a new wheel. Might be something to look into with your rash of breakage.
