^ Ok, and applying facts to the law, how much more likely is it for a conventionally spoked, 32 spoke wheel, doen one spoke to suffer catastrophic failure, and thereby cause an accident than the same wheel with all 32 spokes intact.
If you did break another spoke, at most its likely to quit rolling without rubbing the stays.
I've broken a single spoke ridden home,and nevr had a problem. I've seen lots of people break spokes and keep riding and never had a problem.
I would go as far as wager dollars to doughnuts tha the risk of a catastrophic accident is higer with various esoteric wheels (such as Mavics with CF spokes) than it is with a conventionally spoked wheel down one spoke.
