One day while riding, my bike became ill-handling. While going down a hill, I glanced at my rear wheel and noticed it was wobbling. It was fine in the beginning of the ride. A few weeks prior to that, the LBS re-trued my rear wheel. He informed me that it was the most he could get out of it because some of my spokes were bottomed out. I bought the wheels used. They were in good shape when I bought them. I get home after the ride and noticed in some areas of the wheel, it was rubbing the pads. I knew then the rim was bent along with 2 popped spokes.
I'm not sure what kind of spokes were used. I wish I knew. They are 32h. The front is still ok, but the back is shot. They are old cxp33's, evidence of the older decals on them. SL42's may be overkill, but I may not have to worry about them for a while. What about the Mavic cosmic wheelset?
