About two weeks ago I had my wheels trued. I have maybe 4-5 "light" rides on the bike since then, maybe 30 miles tops.
I had a flat this morning when I went to get the bike ready to ride. Pulled the tire off & there is a hole right over a spoke. The spoke is no where near the top of its' adjustment though.
Question; Is it possible the LBS lightly punctured the tube when truing & it took this long to develop the hole?
As mentioned, the spoke is no where near the tube now, and I haven't done any hard riding that would have collapsed a spoke or pushed it into the wheel that hard.
Just seems odd for this to happen on a bike that is only a month old & has maybe five light rides on it.
