    This happened AGAIN, same wheel, different spoke. The spoke nipple failed. I didn't even hit any noteworthy bumps! Only the exciting part is now it's snowy and icy here, and I'm riding on that with a wobbling front wheel.

    I need some expert advice here: Should I have the LBS replace all the spoke nipples? Or replace the whole wheel? (*Shudder*) Two in a week, when I went for 12,000 miles before without any issues, seems to suggest there's something inherently off about the wheel.
