A question for you mountain bike know-it-alls: I have two pair of wheels, one is a 32 spoke stock Bontrager wheel that came on a 2006 Trek 6500 and the other pair is a Ritchey WCS wheel with only 28 spokes. Which of these wheels is stronger and more resistant to breaking spokes with a heavy load on the rear? or is it a wash. Thanks for your thoughts and experience.
