Why I gravitate towards Touring bikes. Most come with rock solid hubs and36 spoke wheels. I'm 225. Busted a spoke on a 32 spoke replacement wheel last week Did take me about 1500 miles and I did not retention the wheel from the time I put it on till it broke the spoke. Funny but the bent wheel it replaced never broke a spoke and its front mate is still on the bike and doing fine. I have put about 2200 miles on it in the 1.5 years I have owned it. The bike is a 95.

My main commuter just got rebuilt with it's factory Parallax hubs and new set of Sun CR18 rims. Time to buy the CR18's for the other bike and get the 36 spoke back on the bike.
My 84 Fuji came factory with a 48 spoke rear. It is BOMB proof.
