It isn't really the fact that I can't afford a fork, it is my parents being dicks and not letting me buy one, I know it sounds as though I am a wus but believe me, my parents will go mental, If I bought a fork behind their back, they would find out (see it on my bike) send it back, ask for a refund and keep the money themselves, or equivilant. No, have got to break it, pretending it was stolen wouldn't work because it would probably result in the police being called in!!!
