Now I must disagree with you, I weigh 113+kg and have been riding a 32 hole mavic/formula rear for almost two years I bunny hop, jump curbs, ride in gravel, do wheelies, etc.... and have only ever had to even true the wheel once, and my single speed has the same rim but with a quando hub and I have never broken a single spoke on either one. I really don't understand how some people break spokes all the time.
