1. DIY Spoke Replacement

This is actually a pretty simple fix. Remove the tire and then the rim tape before taking off the broken spoke’s nipple (being careful not to lose it). In order to get the right replacement spoke, you can take out an intact one and use it as a measure. Thread the new spoke back in and seal with the nipple. Replace the rim tape and reattach the wheel!
