I never said I destroy my gear.. stop assuming that I destroy parts before changing my components.

Sometimes CF forks are stressed during transport and fail during rides without impact.
Sometimes CF forks fail just because of poor bonding.
When my CF forks failed, I get a new one that's not the same model/brand.
