It doesnt look that bad in this pic, but my finger AND cross break lever went into the space between the rear tire and seat stay bridge on my brothers Cannondale track bike, after he swerved right into my front tire on a fast downhill run, I went to the left, got pretty bad road rash all over and my shoulder killed me, but the finger was about twice the size for about a week, still not quite the same after 2 months.....
