Did your GPS system record the exact moment when your big ring dug into the ground. They would make a funny graph.
Sorry about your frame man.
So, what's next?

 

[vinnycactus]

unfortunately no catastrophic crash or anything. hopping a log, heard a crack (thought he just came unclipped). I asked, "is your frame cracked?". Thankfully my wife was nice enough to let him ride her Sinister.

Heal up!!..................wait, wrong thread...

No doubt! I rode a Bullit for almost 5 years and it wasn't until about year 4 that I finally broke it!

Bullits rule..............

But your Bullit committed suicide because its owner keep doing no footers in neon shorts. It died of embarassment.:biggrin:

Special thanks to Jake at I-Ride Cycles in Huntersville, NC. Let's see if this one lasts another 5 years. Just swapping parts, the slightly smaller and newer frame resulted in the bike dropping a little over 1/2lb. When I got home I swapped the seat off of my seldom used Road bike. It weighed 31.15 at the shop with the heavier seat. So it should be under 31lbs now.

The dark blue is nice, but the Transblue of my old frame will be missed.

After a few rides I will adjust the stack height if necessary and get rid of all those spacers.

First ride, tomorrow AM on Headley.

Sweet frame Rob.
Glad you got it taken care of quickly.


Oh yeah, God wants to know why your stem is up in heaven with him.

Eh the SC issue is still unresolved. My LBS stepped up for me in the meantime.
