I'm seeing two reasons for a likely better outcome: this isn't one of the Performance Fujis, which I think are handled by a different group, and this bike is a new design with a BB cluster that looks like the one above...
It's all for sale! Ksyrium Elites and Ultegra 175mm double cranks w/rings, brakes, derailleurs, and brifters.
None have been ridden, all brand new OEM. Never even had pedals on it.

Yeah, I read about your bad experiences. Yuck.

It was pissed at you for winning on steal, dissing carbon, and jumping ship anyway. It might be in your best interest to have the bike de-jinxed before your next ride.

Sweet ride and a good picture with the casework behind it :-)
You are building it up with Sram Red IIRC?

New company called "iruɟ"
Do you guys think I can do workouts that aren't SST on this bike?

The sprints are only so powerful that an under-build frame (e.g. Madone) might be a problem. Normal frames (Ritchey, etc.) aren't even awakened from their frame stress slumber.
Healing is good. Knee still gets tight, but I can bound up stairs skipping two steps with no pain. Riding on the trainer is fine. I still can't wear shoes with heel cups though. I think I must have fractured the back of it. It's getting better and better every couple days, and doesn't hurt when riding, walking, running, etc. We're coming up on 3 weeks, and to have pain like that without skin damage and no connective tissue pain, I'd think it's a fracture.
I'm sure they didn't x-ray my foot I (no visible damage at all), but I don't remember the hospital anyway. Usually takes 6 weeks to heal fractures, so I'll just leave it alone and won't do anything that hurts (other than trying a shoe every 2 or 3 days).
I guess the at the end of my flip, my feet were probably going pretty fast, and the right one just slammed into the ground.
