half of the pedal cage is snapped off, there's no way anything but a vehicle did that
edit* - sucks about being hit, hope he's able to heal up well |

Then how come the frame is not bent? Also, did the car decide to take the handlebars with it?
This looks 90% malicious to me, as if someone kicked the wheels, like it the "bro trap" thread. I might be wrong, of course. That's the 10% I reserve. |

look at the crank arm and pedal spindle...i think he got run over. if it were someone just kicking...i'd probably let them do whatever they want if they are strong enough to bend a crank arm with legs or hands or whatever...

Yeah, I'm surprised the front wheel is still there.
recent pictures of my Cannondale track build. http://velospace.org/files/phpM6cywaPM.jpg Enjoy. |
i've heard eddie is coming out to goldsprints tonight and that he's been talking and walking around, but basically he says he remembers riding down 5th ave with the green lights one second and then waking up on the ground the next. he's not really sure what happened but he was on the new york forums two days ago saying how he wants to get a bike built up again as soon as possible.
his jaw was broken in three places and i think his ankle was broken as well. dude is one tough cat. |
dude, shut the f u c k up. that cannondale is going to be sick. oh man. post more pics asap.

I hope you put gold rims with gold spoke on there that would be RAD!
|
yeah, make sure you get gold tires and a gold chain too, and paint your body completely gold for every ride.

Is that gold accented rolls? That's a blingy ride if there ever was!
|
I'm planning on putting a White Aerospoke on the back, White Deep V on front with White Spokes/Gold Nipples and a Gold Phil Wood hub. And a white KMC chain.

Good idea! Everybody knows that Aerospokes on a bike are like cheese in a stew: if the bike still looks crummy, add more aerospokes! |
Mismatched gold makes my face hurt.

Nice bike. I love all-black wheels with silver nipples (mine have the same). I had the same mutant stem, too, for a while on mine, but traded it for a lighter stem. It looks good on yours. More black bikes!

Yeah, I too have a black Mutant stem that looks great, but I never use it because it's like adding two pounds to your bike. I should probably dump that **** on eBay already.
|
i like the silver nipples/\/\
Here's my temporary conversion until I can score a new frame. Bars, stem and chain were lying around and just used to get it on the road. http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/5620/dscn2948gd5.jpg |
^^^ what is that black frame?
|
Ftp (fuji)

did you have it powder coated? my buddy did it to his, and i like it better than the stock paint. nice ride btw.
|
Anything is better than the stock FTP colors. I said this in the Pista Concept thread, but if Fuji just painted that bike half decently, they would probably double their sales.
|
yeah, wow. that looks sooo much better than the stock paint. i have been looking at the ftp for a while. this may have set me over the edge. i really like
