Jamis frame failure

Chain stays split right at the weld

We don't "do" Jamis but this guy was nice and there isn't a dealer anywhere close. The frame was a year past the warranty but Jamis did 'em a solid and sent out new stays.

BB dust

BB dust is the stuff that dreams are made of...

Nice cockpit

Bar Ends and the longest stem ever.

Ridley Dean Frame failure

There's supposed to be a bolt there.

You can see the brake "boss" pulling through the bottom of the frame.

This bike was successful in completing a couple of Ironmans but the brakes decided they wanted to try something else out. Ridley warrantied this frame and the rider is on his way to another Ironman...

Fucked BB

My SWorks Hardtail frame met a boulder.

I went shuttle running with S Mehr and ended up with a chunk missing from my BB. I know better but it sounded like fun.

P.L.and R.

There's supposed to be a bearing here.

I wouldn't buy a Pinarello

Second frame that has self-destructed on this customer...

The first was a few months ago. Customer dropped his front wheel off of a curb and the bike sheers in half. There was no damage to the wheels, fork or any other components.

The one pictured here collapsed when the customer ran into a curb. He hit the curb hard enough to put a good, solid dent in the front wheel, but still not what I would say enough to do this to a frame.
