So is the general consensus (at least amongst you two) that barring any damage to the rim or actually snapped spokes, I likely caught a branch or something being kicked up from the road (I vaguely recall hearing a loud snag once now), that these 2 bent spokes is mostly cosmetic and I should be fine to ride it until I can get them replaced (probably between now and a few weeks)?
