Just got the bicycle back from my LBS, after they replaced the front and rear hubs with Shimano Deore and rebuilt the wheel.
    As soon as I came back home I noticed that on my rear wheel there are 3 cracks on the spokes like the one in the picture above.

    The wheels are 4 years old, Kross wheels with 20k km on them, so not really expensive. So far I haven't noticed this but honestly wasn't really checking until today when I was closely looking at the wheel during a tire change.

    What are the chances that the damage has been done by the LBS while they were tensioning the spokes ?

    I am not sure why they haven't mentioned anything at all, if they did mention it I would have told them to not rebuild the wheel with a new hub.
