Ouch! I hope that didn't result in an injury! When I was a youngin' and a bmx fanatic I had a neck snap when I landed on the otherside of a triple. I ate dirt and knocked myself clean out!

I didn't wipe out, I did a few miles before that though (I HATE UNDERSTEER) I was just pulling a wheelie when BAM, it broke, luckily, I have lightning fast reflexes and recovered fast enough to prevent a crash

do note that that stem (gooseneck) is not a Schwinn part, Schwinn's were cast.
Boy I like my Schwinn bike, Schwinn is the finest bike.

Yeah, that wasn't the original one, I broke the original one trying to take it off to put new forks on (I couldn't remove the old forks either)
