I just got back from my local bike shop. They said that in order to replace the 7 missing spokes on my Special Cruiser, it would be $10 "set-up" fee and then $2 per spoke to cut and cut the grooves for the nipples! Holy of Holies!!! I can't justify that expense right now and was hoping for suggestions. I'm going to the thrift store today to see if they have any bikes with the same size spokes......ugh!! Any help would be appreciated.
