They typically would only fail one at a time if ridden long enough to bring on fatigue failure. I've ridden much worse-looking spokes but the brand of spokes can be much more important than differences in the level of corrosion..
That is very good to know. The hubs were gunked up with old grease but the races and cones look smooth and I think the double butted spokes and Nisi rims will be a nice wheelset for the bike. A bit intimidated by 43-21 as my granny gear so this will not be a bike for the mountains. Strange thing with the rims, someone has drilled two shallow dents between every spokehole, drillium perhaps? It is fun working on this bike, old campy parts are really well made!
