I’ve had this Giant Via since it was new. I had rear hub changed out for a Sturmey Archer 2 speed and a high flange hub in front. I added a Brooks saddle and a few other gadgets. I’m on the third set of tires. It’s a comfortable rider.
I was in the process of adding the Schwalbe G-One tires when a spoke broke. I was cleaning the rear hub with a rag and hear a twang. Never had that happen before but one broke at the hub flange. I replace it today and finished the tire mount. Did some adjustments and went for a spin. The G-Ones ride nice, I used tubes. Need to find some gravel or dirt.
Before and after:
