two cyclists going in opposite directions came around a corner and connected. his crusier was fine but my Surley top tube and down tube buckled and the rear wheel is a taco. it was so bad that i had to carry it home. the front wheel was about an inch passed the down tube so it wouldnt turn and couldnt wheelie it since the rear wheel was smackin the chain stays.
its totaled, there are big shop tools that can staighten out a head tube but i think the fork is twisted so its a lost cause.
i dontknow yet, the New Long Haul Trucker from Surley is good sounding and would have slacked angles. the Karate Monkey is a fun thought, to bad it has a unicrown.(less class)
then there is the $400 dollar Kona Smoke. i could put my better parts on it, my Drive train is undamaged.
im fine. my forarms are hurting from handlebar slamming flesh. i had my helmet on,good thing to since my head hit the other guys face! everything seems to be ok, minor aches and abrasions.
