Well I went riding with Nick today at his track.I was on my stocker TTR and he was on his modded crf.I guess the jumps just got the the rear wheel and the thing just let go.I have a total of 11 spokes left in my back wheel.So what I want to know is what will prevent this from happening again?I am going to get an excel back rim with the heavy duty spokes.Do you think it was because the rim and spokes are just week or was it the crappy rear suspension(im running a honda shock with heavy springs)?Or was it a combo of both?Also does anyone know who has a good price on a 10inch excel rim in silver with the excel spokes?The cheapest I found was $81.99 for the rim and $49.34 for the spokes.Is that a good price?
