[QUOTE="ajaf1656, post: 16594353, member: 196707"] Keep the pics coming. Awesome stuff. Also, not sure if you were referring to my post, but I said that during the three years I worked as a bike mechanic, I never saw a MTB break from normal use, not that it doesn't happen. I don't know how many bikes I worked on in that time, but it's rare enough that it never came across my work stand. We saw some mangled stuff come through the shop and we had a running joke about it. People would bring in a bike twisted up like a pretzel or otherwise spectacularly destroyed, but a lot of people just wouldn't want to say what happened. I guess they were too embarrassed to admit they crashed or to admit they drove into the garage with their bikes on top of their car. For those spectacularly mangled bikes that had no story, we'd say they were "JRA" for Just Riding Along. The is frame snapped in half, the bars bent in opposite directions, the seat looks like it was mauled by a cougar and both wheels are taco'd. Wow, what happened? I was just riding along and the damn thing broke. Lol [/QUOTE]
