All,
I have a 2017 YT Jeffsy and was riding on Sunday heading to local trails when two of my spokes on the rest wheel broke at the nipple end while riding up hill on the road.
Removed the tyre and rim tape and discovered most of the nipples had corroded and reduced to white floury powder.
Anyone had similar problems?

It happens to most alu nipples in this country. Rebuild with brass ones.
