Dug around my garage and found a workable solution so no need for *another*
wheel!

My teenage son had some issue on his commute to work, Spokes broken and
others bent?

I didn't get a clear story from him when he finally arrived home with the
wheel way out of true. There are at least two spokes broken on the drive
side and a few bent.

Thinking it will be more $ to repair then to simply replace with another
wheel so maybe looking for a 8/9spd 26" v-brake rim and nothing fancy or
expensive lest this happens again.

I do have a 26" front v-brake wheel (Bonty BCX from mid 90's + plus
semi-useable matching wheel) I could trade?

Let me know off line.
