My commuter has had 12 spokes replaced in last 6 months, and another 2 broke today! I am after suggestions for a 700c wheel that can take an 8 speed cassette and 28 mm tyre please.
I am not worried about weight as only 9 miles each way.
Thanks in advance

Sounds about right the rear Alexrim wheel that came on my Secteur was utter crap, constantly going out of true. I replaced with Mavic Aksiums with a much lower spoke count and have never had any issues.
