Not to mention that you have to buy the "Mavic product protection plan" at the time that you purchase the wheel. The "warranty" does not cover "normal wear and tear or damage resulting from shipment,storage, failure to follow the user's guide and/or recommendations for use, improper assembly or assembly with incompatible products, poor maintenance, misuse, modification or alteration of the product."

I tried to built it myself, what a nightmare. You learn to turn a spoke a certain direction and you do that for 15 years, then this thing comes along. -- _________________________ Chris Phillipo - Cape Breton, Nova Scotia http://www.ramsays-online.com |

Oh, mine sort of "popped out", where the nub fits the slot at the hub. (Hub nub!) Thought the spoke had broke (just keeping with tone here), but it hadn't.
