Actually IME spoke pull throughs are relatively non incident related/causing. Having seen dozens over the years and many (maybe most) were not even noticed by the rider till we pointed them out. Often during a annual servicing of their bike. And we do ask if there's any issues with the bike they know of that we need to focus on at the time of the service ticket write up. The usual early indications (other then the obvious visual) are a rim that won't stay true. Andy
