I am trying to get some replacement spokes. I broke one. My locak Trek dealer says I have to get them in quantities of 10. There are 3 different spokes (front, rear left, rear right). To get 1 spare of each type I would have to buy 30 spokes total at a cost of 75 dollars plus shipping! Does anyone know where I can get a handful of replacement spokes? Thanks a bunch.

If your Trek dealer won't stock the spokes for themselves, and sell/give you only the ones you need, you should find a different Trek dealer. That is just horrible customer service if you ask me. You can also try Trek directly. They will probably want you to go through a dealer, but they can put some pressure on the dealer.

Just replace it with a regular double-butted spoke. I would imagine a LBS would have a 14/15 gauge spoke they could sell you for $2 or less.
