I agree consult attorney, but don't sue unless you have to. A friend of mine was in a traffic accident about 14 years ago now. He was rear ended in his suburban while stopped on the freeway. It bent the frame of the suburban, yet the guy who hit him said he was only doing 35Mph!!! Well it took 10 years to get to court, he ended up getting $40,000 which was less then they were asking which was $50,000 so he had to pay half the court costs.. plus pay for his laywer, plus pay for the specialist. So in another words after medical bills, he lost money. I'm sure litespeed would like to take a look at that frame, maybe they have a crash replacment policty to. It's possible because the frame broke like that it absorbed alot of the force, that otherwise would have been transfered to you, so might be a good thing.. How about a titanium litespeed this time?
