Apocalypse_reaper666 Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Well some of you will laugh at me some of you wont. I used to post loads of pictures of my trials bike when i finished building it. It annoyed people to which i agree i did go a bit OTT. But i have bad news! IT SNAPPED! A pic before it snapped: A picture of the gap that snapped it: (p.s i made the gap it snapped later that week) And now the Picture OF the snap! The thing is ive got to send it to north yorkshire to get the companey to even look at it! and post goes by size AND weight even though its light its still going to cost laods to top the week off even more both my nans died that week! ive just got in from the wake of wone of them tonite R.I.P nans!

nickyw Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 That's bad dude....Really bad. As for your frame...Krisboat's base hasnt snapped yet,Still going strong...Not even a crack in it.Guess you have to be a smooth rider like kris to have a base without cracking or snapping.
