No, no crashes, and I have tried hard not to run over anything and miss even small depressions in the road. I picked up the bike from the LBS on Friday the 8th. The shop is closed Tues & Wed so I will be taking it back tomorrow to have them look at it. I just ordered a Spin Doctor truing stand and spoke wrenches, so I can learn how to do some of this myself. I really want to get a new bike, but I made a deal with my wife that if I can loose 50 lbs I can seriously look at a new one, so I got to get out there and start logging some miles!!!! Thanks to all for your help!
