Just to clarify my experience, 34 of 36 spokes on the rear wheel were just fine after I did the tension and stress relief thing. (The other two broke before I got a round tuit.) If you've got a decent wheel mechanic in your area, I'd expect he could do the same for you for less than $100 for the set. Since I've had similar trouble with two other wheel sets, I'd expect to do the same for any set of wheels I bought -- so the Fuji-DT differential would be preserved.
