Any advice on what my problem is would be much appreciated...My first set of wheels that came on my bike were Bontrager Selects, 24 paired spokes 2 cross lacing (rear). They would be about 18 months old now...stopped riding them at about 15 months because I was repeatedly snapping spokes on my rear wheel. One snapped, got it fixed, another snapped the next day. After getting that fixed I was good for about a week until yet another one snapped. The first time a spoke was replaced the shop just put a new spoke in and tension only that spoke til the wheel was true. The second time I had everything retensioned. Now I'm on a set of Alex AT400's. I wasn't expecting them to last forever, but after having them for 3 days I snapped a spoke on this rear wheel. The Alex's are 24 spoke, 3 cross I believe.
The first Bontrager spoke that snapped was about 6-8 cm from the flange. The next 2 on the Bontrager and the latest one on the Alex broke right at the flange.
I'm a little over 1.9 meters tall and weigh about 93 kilos if it helps figuring out the problem....any one have any advice or suggestions to the problem?
