Broke a spoke on the non-drive side on the rear Mavic Ksyrium Equipe on this morning’s Freo Wheelers group ride. When I got the rim back from Mercer Cycles I was advised that the rim had hairline fractures and hence I retired the rim immediately. I have used a spare rim until March 27, 2010. |

After my morning ride, a very noisy one, I find the rear cluster was “loose.” Upon closer inspection I found the lock ring had come free. I removed, checked over and refitted the cluster and re-tensioned the lock ring. To get an idea on how to do this, this video at the BicycleTutor.com is helpful. |
