I'm pretty bad at checking them, so I guess it's been broken for a while: one rear wheel spoke.

I'm going to Grange tomorrow and I think it's OK, but you tell me.

Also do dealers have it in stock? It's a standard KTM 17" SuMo wheel.

I'd say for one day you'll be ok to ride, BUTTTTT ONLY if you tighten your other spokes to spec and keep an eye on your spokes every time after you pit.

Malcolm Smith might actually have something in stock, check them out on your way out or give them a call.
