Hoping this is the right place to ask. I have a Freego ebike (moped) and I've got 6 broken spokes on the rear hub. I emailed the company and they said I need 13g X 125mm and 13g X 127mm. Are these sizes something a bike shop will carry or will I need to purchase online beforehand? I'm fine with purchasing (Freego is asking me to pay double online prices) for replacements. Is this something a layman can replace easily. I know the wheel won't be trued but I need a quick fix as this is my "car". Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Will be taking it to the LBS next week. Do you think the entire wheel will need to be relaced or can the broken ones just be replaced. This was after 800 miles of riding, no curb jumps or whatever, if it matters lol.

Sentient Data posted:It depends on exactly how it broke, but as long as it didn't rip the nipple itself through the wheel you should be ok. Have them check the torque on all the spokes just in case they wouldn't do that as standard, if they aren't all correct you could be in for a quick repeat They're all broken at the hub/hook side (sorry wrong term I know). Still attached at the nipples, swinging in the wind. Really appreciate the knowledge. Been lurking this thread before I got a bike. I know I'm not one of you but ebikes own
