[QUOTE="KTA, post: 839633, member: 16065"] [b].[/b] Missing 1 spoke won't make much of a strength difference, however what it will do is unbalance the wheel. If the wheel starts spinning fast enough you would most likely feel some vibrations/shaking because of it. Your bearings should definitely be replaced. The front wheel should spin nice and smooth, the rear should do the same with the chain detached. I check the play in my wheels after every ride. If I notice any play I replace the bearings. As an FYI, bearings from the dealer are pricey, try to find a bearing supplier nearby. Just bring in your old ones and they should be able to size them up and give you new ones pretty cheap. [/QUOTE]
