Same here. I did something really stupid (went against physics), fell
over and bent the heck out of my rear wheel of my Ram. I was able to
just widen the brake caliper with the adjuster and ride on home for five
miles and not a thing rubbed. I didn't even feel the sizable wobble in
the rim.

Same problem last fall for me, but I was on my Ram. I did some
hamfisted truing, and then rode the last 20 miles of the ride home. I
really appreciated the bike's design that day.

Very nice ride today. Thirty miles out and back on the oddly named
Pleasant Valley Road. It is indeed pleasant, just not a valley. A
full 1600 feet of climbing before your done. Anyway I was just about
to start up the last couple of miles of steep uphill when I saw a
rider standing on the other side of the road. He said something
snapped and then the bike got really hard to pedal. A quick
examination turned up a broken spoke and a 21 mm tire wedged against
the chain stay. No space; vertical drop outs so no way to cheat a
little. I skipped the lecture as he appeared anxious enough already.
I asked him if he was headed to Cambridge ( 5-6 miles of downhill.)
Nope, his car was in Underhill, back up the hill he was going down.
Nothing I could do to help.
