Not knowing anything about the area in which you live, I'd have to suggest any cycle dealer regardless of the brand. The spoke sizes are pretty much universal for similar sized rims. In most sections of the country the going labor charge is $50 to $55 per hour. I'd remove the tire before taking it to any one which would save some labor charge. You'd also need to have the rim trued after replacing the spokes, unless it is severely bent, in which case you'd be wise to replace the entire rim.You didn't say whether it is a front or rear rim. If the xr80 doesn't come with rimlocks you may want to check on them while you're at it for future protection against ripping out of tube valves.
