Customer Reviews

5 Stars Yep, I needed these.
by a member from League City, TX on May 8, 2011
  Bought these as a "just in case" item. And "just in case" happened. It was my shakedown tour and I learned quickly that I would need a better set of wheels. After 60 miles, one of my spokes came off. This little guy stepped right in and got me to the bike shop. I have little mechanical knowledge (at the time) but this was easy to get on. They are small, weight nothing and give you peace of mind. I bought 2!

5 Stars Fiber Spoke
by Larry moormeier from Seattle, WA on Jun 1, 2010
  The fiber spokes are simple and easy to use and are must for long distance touring. Essential item for a tool bag. I carry (2) fiber spokes when long distance touring in case I break a spoke on the free wheel side because I do not carry the tool to remove the free wheel. May 2009, my riding partner and I met a cyclist from New York on the road a few days earlier and we all were headed west. About 60 miles east of Murphysboro, Il. our new cycling friend broke two spokes on the rear rim freewheel side. My partner and I had 3 fiber spokes between us. Our friend use two of them which allowed him to repair and true the wheel and ride another 50 miles to the nearest bicycle shop. The following day he broke another spoke and reused one of the fiber spokes used the previous day.

5 Stars Finally came in handy
by a member from Minneapolis, MN on Apr 30, 2010
  I've been carrying mine for about 3 years, I finally broke a spoke. No problems, the fiberfix worked amazingly well. Installed fast, proved strong enough for several miles of continued riding to get home. My opinion: If a person knows how to remove & remount a tire, then they should already have the skills to use this. It's cheap & lightweight, so carrying it is simple insurance against having to walk home.
