Chris' Allez was a little more than dented. Nobody landed on it, it just tumbled riderless down the road. I'm just saying, a bunch of bikes go into a huge pileup, the carbon bike is not necessarily going to be the one to be destroyed.
I've been in way more crashes than I would like to admit, but the only frame damage I've ever had was to an aluminum frame. An Allez at that...
