Question About FiberFix Emergency Spoke Repair Kit
I'm convinced I want one of these for my tool kit, but I'm going to want to do a practice run on an old wheel before I get stuck on the road. Does the kit come with only enough parts for one repair?

Yes, the idea is that the repair will get you to the next bike shop where you can get a regular spoke of the right type/length. Then you replace the Fiberfix spoke and it's ready to use again if you have another spoke break.

AND...you needn't remove your cassette to repair a broken rear drive- side spoke.

Some bike shops stock them, some don't. You'll just have to ask locally.
