abtrials Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) as the topic says, has anyone ever had a go on your bike and broke it?my recent example is this= i was on my friends old school orange zero (which feels like a granny treader to ride now i am using a +25 bb frame) and my mate was on mine he fell off and managed to give me 4 punctires on the front dont ask me how? i toke it apart fixed one of the pinches set it all up went to pump up and nothing, took apart only to discover the 2nd pinch flat (we obviously had a laugh about it ) anyway you ever had this happen to you, or done this to someone else??????

eskimo Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 It's not too bad when it punctures, just tends to be really funny on either end.Getting/ giving scratches and taking out spokes when playing foot down is also an annoying one. I don't think i've ever experienced any thing real bad though like snapped bars for example. But if it was my bike that had its bars snapped, i wouldn't be mad as that has broken from being used over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopipe Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 yer i like people breaking my old parts. for example obm broke my chain saving me piling into some steps and denting my shoulder, cheers mark har har It wouldn't bother me really - I'd pretend it did and make them feel really guilty about it but unless they took a hammer to my poor baby it wouldn't be their fault.

We've noticed Tarty snapped my chain once, as soon as he got on my bike haha! he had a spair link though...I dented my mates downtube once (smallest dent ever!!) and he went bollistic haha, even though his bike was shit... so my other mate just said, "shut up you big fag, its only a dent..." and the other lad went home haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abe Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 it has happend to me, let my mate on my bike, but forgot to tell him that I had black cool stops on a completely smooth rim, it was also wet.So we did I tiny backwheel and flipped over backwards,he was fine, but My bike received a nice dent next to the maggy and a popped magura pipe. He didnt know me that well at the time so he gave me a koxx wheel he had laying around for it but if it were now we wud probably just laugh about.

Greetings Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 The worst thing that happened to me was to get shit all over my friends bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Ages ago some little retard managed to rip the hose out of my break lever dragging my bike across the park so he could stand on it to clime a tree! That really pissed me off, but he was like 8 or 9 so I couldn't really get him to give me £20 for a new hose/bleed. It would have been several month pocket money to him probably. And the usual stuff like mates breaking chains and giving me punctures. But its all normally laughed off if its a mate.Wort Ive done to other peoples bikes really is small scratches.I agree though, if somethings gunna break, its better if there on it when it does!

Jamie_Neal Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I borrowed a friends wheel as my Hope was being repaired - it was a deore with 121 ceramic (lovely rim) and I managed to fold the wheel in half and snap the axle in the hub. He was gutted and so was I - That rim was a classic.I think I managed to crack my friends level boss (borrowed for a while) but he returned the favour by borrowing and snapping my zebdi.All good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
