Ditto here. My rule of thumb is: one broken spoke could be a fluke, two broken spokes is a trend, three broken spokes makes it certain. By now,
all of the spokes are fatigued. Even if you were to have it professionally trued and tensioned, you'll continue to break spokes.
FWIW: Universal Cycles has a couple wheelsets on special right now. If the dealer doesn't cover them under warranty, you might consider them:
