The Shimano RS10s on my Cannondale road bike have never been amazing - they flex under hard pedalling load.

I've changed a couple of spokes before. I pinged one again this morning without really trying that hard - it snapped at the thread.

Replacements are 4 or 5 quid each, plus postage. So my question is...should I bother or quit whilst I'm behind? In which case...., what sub£100 front wheel? Can't justify spending more as I ride road for fitness only really...

Or, I guess....are there any cheaper 284mm straight pull bladed spokes out there which will deffo fit?
