trial-biker-ryan Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 i was out riding to day on my bran new t-mag and i did a ten crate drop a couple of times and then i flat bottomed it! ( landed on to wheels ) i think iv jarred my back it feels like a dull ache, as i landed my feet come of the pedles luckily, i think that saved my frame it could of been worse, but the only damage seems to be is that the front free wheel has exploded, its still useable but sound funny, i will replace it A.S.A.P,Where shall i check for cracks and such, and is the t-mag a easy frame to snap? my mate said if it had been a t-pro it probly would of snapped,.... is this true any help appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 10 crates is nothing i got up 10 crates today Do you want a ceremony with your medal?Anyways, check all your welds around the headtube and bottom bracket area, along with the dropout welds.Should be fine to be honest, just check everything ever few weeks like bars for cracks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossman Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Without a ramp 10 pallets is good. But defo check your bike, maybe check yours spokes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
