Mavic Crossride. Stick or twist?

I have a previously issue-free pair of Mavic Crossrides. However, the rear is increasingly getting knocked out of true.
It's a 24h, straight pull spoke affair. And I'm not the biggest (14ish stones) and ride mainly XC.
I'm after a bit of advice on whether to cut my losses and get a new wheel, or whether there are any re-build options open to me?
They're a lovely wheelset, but the buckles are hacking me off!
Cheers.

Go to your LBS and get a quote on getting them trued and put back in order!
Much cheaper than buying a new wheelset unless they are dishing like crazy.0 -
Touché!
What I did miss off was that it buckles every month or so.Cove HJ0 -

Then it sounds to me like like the spoke are not good quality. May want to get some new spokes put in as well. Not too expensive.0 -
Crossrides are pretty good wheels, I use them, & a small rebuild of one is a hell of a lot less than 2 new wheels!0
