Yeah, well the general consensus seems to be I inadvertently hit the front brake. No memory of this happening during the near flip but it is entire plausible for sure. Fingers crossed so far but this thread hasn’t disintegrated into nonsense we do sometimes see here.
Yeah seems to be that front brakes were touched, no memory of this, may be the oxygen debt you mentioned about... that made me laugh.

Yeah I either hit the brakes or was leaning too far forward and probably picked the bike up, not sure so curious what others think or have experience themselves and if they had a conclusive answer when it happened to them.
