Scott Gibbs Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 1 frame11 rims 8 rear 3 front1 crank arm3 disc rotors1 set of handlebars1 set of forks1 seat postcountless chains2 rear mechs (not on trials bikes i may add.)My worst crash to date was bout 6 years ago. I was downhilling on my fave spot when i came through an off camber rooty corner through an old farmers gate at quite a rate when i was confronted by a woman walking her dog. I swerved hit the brakes, smashed into a tree, flew over the bars and got tangled in a barbed wire fence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 cant remember how much stuff I have broken, its been plenty in the last 11 years I can tell you that!Worst crash? Hmm, had a few. I have a habbit of falling on my back (did it twice today off a 5ft shed!). I think the worse was at the 05 bike show, I managed to get myself up to one of the highest points only to mess up and miss my footing and fall 10ft onto my back on my bike. But there was also the time I fell off a 9ft section at Tech 04 when my trousers caught on my pedals, I fell onto my back on a curb. But there was also the time at Koxx days when I fell off a 15ft rock onto my back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley-Wood Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 errreverything on a bike apart from bars and stem o and i have never broke any forks i guess im due to hacrashes i alwayys hurt my self badly because of snapping chains or when i snapped almost every tooth off a profile cog and went flying over bars and bouncing in the road breaking my wrist. good times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottTrials Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 6 chains this year since changing from stock to mod.1 front echo cnc wheel1 hope master cylinderplenty of innertubesWorst accident would have to have been when I was 13 when I rode BMX and when for a jump made of 2 rear tractor sized tyre's with a piece of plywood at either end. Then as I went for it my front wheel caught the tip of the ply on the landing and sent me front flipping under 1m with my bike aparently (I was told that part later when I came back into the real world). I was lying face down with my feet caught up in the frame and my ribs on the bars. Then 4 day's later after I had travelled from portland, dorset up to ardrishaig, Argyll for my auntie's birthday party I collapsed in my Nan's kitchen. I was then taken to hospital and for 5 hours they tried to find out what was wrong and then the Dr. pressed in the area of the spleen and they lost all signs of me being alive (so I was told by the Dr), I was then airlefted to glasgow yorkhill with a spleenetic subcapsular hematoma which would have killed me if it burst and it nearly did. So here I am today riding trials and I have promised everyone in my family that I'm never going on a BMX ever again.Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
