Did you shift into the spokes or did the parts all just implode simultaneously?
Time to go bike shopping.

Wow, are you all right? Did you end up falling badly?
If you love the bike, you can talk to Calfee about getting it fixed. Otherwise, does Scott have a crash replacement policy?

Ditto what Fstshrk said. You ok???
Though I often care less about me than the bike. I popped a tire the other night & wife asked if I was ok.
I said, "Ya, bike's OK I didn't lay it down."
She retorted with....."No, are YOU Ok!?!".
I said, "Oh ya, I'm fine."
So, now you can tell the wife, "Hey, you always wanted me to get rid of one of the bikes, right? There ya go! Can I replace it tomorrow?"

It locked up and I unclipped just in time , Its already apart and really not worth the hassle of getting it fixed, its sorta like after a car is wrecked its never really the same , I had just did a descent at 38mph, so the good Lord was on my side !

I'm guessing RD into the spokes, pulls the chain to the outside as it goes, ripping the braze-on out of the frame.
My guess is that its totally recoverable. Clamp-on FD, new hanger & RD, and you're probably good to go. There's likely some damage to the seat tube, but it looks like it ripped out pretty cleanly and wouldn't compromise the strength. You'd want a more detailed inspection to confirm that though. Basically, check for any weakness around and especially between the holes. It becomes an ideal beater.

Did the rear derailleur get into the wheel? Glad you got off without getting wrecked as badly as the bike.
Told to the Minister of Finance as see when the replacement is being ordered.

It looks like the braze on just ripped off the carbon tube getting the chain caught in the crank arm/pedal while pedaling pulling the rear derailleur off. But who knows, weird.

Seriously sucks but good you're ok. Were you shifting when it occurred or was it all spontaneous. Do you recall where the abnormal sound began? Front or rear? Don't think I'd want to clamp an FD on that tube even after repaired.
