yes - the spoke broke at the J bend and yes I just finished replacing it and noticed the wear on the rim that you mention. The bike originally came with Alex wheels and I'm around 185 lbs and after a number of rides the spokes on the rear started snapping so replaced with Mavic open road and that has held up well. Never had to true the front wheel much at all - it's the Alex wheel but when I just trued it I ended up relieving some tension to a some spokes as it seemed to me that they had become too tight over time.
My question should have been asked - if I just replace the spoke that snapped how likely will it be that others will snap next time I ride. But I think I;m good till the fall when I'll either buy a new wheel or respoke the current one.
thanks
