Yeah I was wondering whether it was handbiolt or machine built.

Back down LBS this week - 3 more spokes gone. Now I've got a new wheel. For full story, see below (and I think I might use a different LBS from now on).
Put the bike in for a service (& left it with them for a full week) 2 weeks ago - billed £40.
After I got the bike back the derailleur didn't work, nearly came off several times due to erratic & sudden shifting.
Rear wheel hadn't been trued.
Rear brakes sticking, largely due to stiff calliper.
Phoned up and said I wasn't happy and that I'd be back this weekend, checking they'd have mech. staff in. Dropped it off, later they called me - new wheel required, cables need changed due to seizing, callipers need changed. Fair dos, they're not lying - but WTF couldn't they have sussed it 2 weeks ago!!!!
£70 down this evening. I don't mind replacing stuff but it would have been cheaper and easier doing it all the first time.
Time to take custom elsewhere I think.
