When I first got my bike (2nd hand) and didn't have a clue about bicycles.
I got two broken spokes on the rear. Took it to the shop for assistance and they told me to bin it, too much work.
I understand there is a bit of time involved replacing spokes etc, but was he right to just say to throw it away and buy a new wheel?
I could of saved it if I had known you could do it yourself...
