Mountain Bike Destruction

tigmaster · 05-12-2007, 05:41 PM

so i know this is a dirt biking forum but i thought everyone might want to hear this good bikestruction story. so i was riding my moms mountain bike around, hitting wheelies and endos and sliding it around turns. i was pretty much torturing this bike. anyway then i decided to go real fast on it. i was sliding it through a turn and was proceding to power out of the turn when the back of the bike locked up. it slid all crazy like and i was like what the heck!!! i looked back at the tire and it was taco-ed in half and the rear frame was folded backe toward my leg. the rear calipers were also just dangling after the taco of a tire ripped into them. ya the rear cluster of sprockets were also bent up and the chain was folded in half. i dont even know wat i did to this bike but i sure broke it good

and thought u might want to hear the hillarious story.

That is priceless man. I wonder how you did that. Got a pic of the damage?

tigmaster · 05-12-2007, 09:12 PM

i will get a pic eventually. i am at my moms house and all she has is a regular 35mm camera, but i will take a pic and eventually get it developed and up.

JThompson · 05-12-2007, 09:29 PM

Did not even know 35mm cameras were still around :P

tigmaster · 05-12-2007, 09:39 PM

lol, ya i know. i dont even have a digital camera. i wish i had a digital camera because i definately would be takin lots of pictures to post up here. maybe someday when i have monet i will buy one. until then i just borrow my friends when necessary. thats why it takes me a while to get pics posted.

My digital camera is about 3 years old and i hate it. Cant wait till i can buy a new one... Any recommendations from anyone on a good digital camera for under $300

Carnage Rocks!!! Just as long as nobody gets hurt too bad. Let us know when you get a pic posted. I got a camera last year for around $250, just a little Kodak 5meg. Nothing special but the quality is pretty good.

wow ive never heard of anything like that happening before, you must be pretty good to do damage like that! lol

tigmaster · 05-22-2007, 02:33 PM

i like to consider myself good at breaking things, but who isnt?

Breaking is fun. Paying for repairs --- not so fun!
