Is it just me?
When I first started researching self-bike maintenance, I kept being told that I should learn how to fix broken spokes, because sooner or later they happen to everyone. It took me several thousand miles for it to happen, but sure enough, it did. So I'll tell you the same thing... it happens to everyone. Don't take it personally.
