Wow. Glad you recovered ok. That bend is impressive. Must have been quite an impact. Was the bike toast?

Also I dont know if you care but theres a lot of personal info in that second photo, dob, address, name and patient id. Might want to blur it and repost up to you though.

[MENTION=124730]SJX426[/MENTION] ouch, hope you are ok now.

After seeing all these bent forks I came to think about a Swedish design classic.
