A bit of araldite and it'll be fine.

Hope shoudl be good from what I've experienced but you still have to pay for the wheel build I guess.

spoke is well chewed - wonder if the chain pushing it towards the middle of the hub is what caused the problem?

That's a bit alarming. Looks like metal, breaks like cardboard. Especially when I was hammering 7 shades of shit out of mine last night replacing the bearings 🙁

spoke is well chewed

I have at least 6 like that 🙁

Aye rough bugger! Just changed bearings on an XC hub.. it looks to have more spare metal than that.
