Fiberfix emergency spokes are back in production; the idea being that if you break a spoke on the road, you can glom one of these Kevlar stretchies into place and fix the wheel up temporarily without needing to wrestle off cassettes etc.
However, they only seem to be available in the USA, so I thought I'd ask if any cycling friends want some before ordering, to save on P&P. They look to be about 10 American pesos^W dollars each, and are allegedly reuseable.
ETA: I have never used one. I have never _seen_ one. Sheldon seems to think they work to get you home.
