Bit of advice/pick of the collective brain please.
I’ve got a set of bonty tubless rims (currently with tubes in), that in the past 18months I’ve had to replace about 9-10 nipples on, they seem to ping/crack at random times. I’m not an abusive rider, the rims themselves show no signs of heavy impact, but I’m getting bored of replacing them one at a time, but don’t fancy my chances of sorting them all out myself.
So do I…
a: Have a go and hope for the best
b: Find a decent LBS who’ll do it for me (££??)
c: Find some replacements in the January Sales and have them as spares/practice wheels.
Bearing in mind that if I get an LBS to do it, I’ll probably end up with a full hub service/freehub too.
Cheers
