one of my spokes is bent right next to the hub. but its still the same tension as the rest of my spokes. and my wheel is still in true. how concerned do i have to be?
how bent? a little you should be fine, a lot it will break quickly if you take it off curbs and what not, either way eventually it will break as you tighten it to keep it at the right tension, probably go on for quite a while if you take it easy.
