Rear Wheel Spokes £87

[fjrden]

Was out for a nice wee jaunt on Saturday and on returning home found one of my rear spokes adrift and bent. No sign of bolt to hold it in,
Contacted my local dealer who claims that they can only be bought in a set for £87.
Is it still safe to ride with this spoke out long term?
I am gonna try and get to other fabricators to see if the spoke can be straightened and a nut bolt put in.
I live in Northern Ireland so any help out there would be great

Any other suggestions please. ::021::

For the ride home, you should be okay.
It is best to replace the spoke as soon as reasonably possible.
Try and snag a new spoke from someone on the forum, there will be a few by now who have had to buy a whole set.....
