The rear wheel spokes of a section C Rapide have all become a bit slack. There was only a few hundred miles on the bike after the wheel build. The rim is still running true. But, we'll still need to demount the tire and re-true the wheel.
The 19 inch rim, spokes, and nipple are all stainless, and all new. The threads were coated with copper anti-seize compound. After the lace up, all the spokes were tight and had the same tension and sound when struck - ie. a good job. I've never seen this happen.
Any thoughts on the cause of things coming loose? Has anyone else had this happen?
