A broken spoke can turn a great ride into a hike in no time. Whether you ride a daily commuter, a high-end road bike, or a vintage beauty, a damaged or broken spoke needs to be addressed quickly and correctly to maintain your wheel's integrity and trueness.

At Arrow Wheels, we don't just replace spokes; we diagnose the root cause of the failure and ensure the replacement spoke is tensioned perfectly, keeping your wheel strong and reliable. As specialists in custom wheel building, spoke replacement is in our DNA.

A broken spoke can quickly derail your ride, making your wheel unstable and unsafe. We specialize in spoke replacement, getting your wheel back into perfect working order without the need for a full wheel rebuild. Whether you've snapped a spoke on the trail or noticed a loose one on your commuter, we can replace it, restore the correct tension, and get you back on the road safely.

Damaged and Bent Spokes

It's not always a clean break. Sometimes, a spoke can get bent or damaged from an impact, which compromises its strength and tension. We can inspect your wheel for any signs of damage and replace any spokes that are bent, cracked, or compromised. A damaged spoke is a weak point in your wheel and should be replaced to ensure your safety and your wheel's longevity.

Nipple Replacement

A spoke's connection to the rim is just as important as the spoke itself. Over time, spoke nipples can get chewed up from an adjustment tool, crack from too much tension, or corrode, making them impossible to work with. We can replace damaged nipples individually or replace all of them during a spoke replacement, ensuring every part of your wheel is in perfect condition.

The Repair Process

Our process for spoke replacement is meticulous. We'll find the correct replacement spoke, matching the right length, diameter, and bend, and install it properly. We then use professional tools to tension the new spoke correctly, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the others. We'll also perform a quick check to make sure the wheel is running true and perfectly aligned.

Spoke Upgrades

Want to add some style or a performance boost to your wheels? We can upgrade your spokes to a lighter, stronger, or different-colored option. This simple upgrade can improve your wheel's durability, reduce weight, or simply give your bike a fresh look.

Don't let a faulty spoke or nipple keep you from your ride; bring your wheel in today for a quick, expert repair and get back to spinning safely.
