I'm no doctor, but having been a little banged up in my time, I'd say some new scars on the way... Ow.

I got the paint story too last Thursday. I'm calling them today to see what's up. I'll let you know. I'm trying to be nice because they are basically giving me a frame but still, it's taking freaking forever.

Wow. I had an X-Ray that looked almost identical to the one you just posted. I recommend you get the surgery. I did not, my doctor recommended that I wait for it to heal on its own. That was in July. By december, it was still hurting. The bone had healed up into a big jagged mass. I had to have surgery over Christmas to have it cut up and put back together. I still have a big lump and a collarbone that protrudes significantly, stretching my skin. It still hurts 7 months later, and everytime I turn over at night and it hurts, I wish that I had had the surgery at once. I'm also way out of shape now because I had to wait for so long for it to heal.

Mine is already painted. What frame are you getting again? I opted for the Roscoe, which, while heavier, will make a nice urban bike. If the geometry is sweet, it will fit the bill. Horizontal drops too. :thumb: Like I said earlier, I got a voice mail from Chad saying it should ship today.
