Exclamation our MB friend 'Turbo/Chaos' just broke his collarbone

lets all wish him 'Get Well'.

Just called me from the hospital, and he's pretty banged up.

The headstock couldn't handle his ape-hangers, and it snapped going over a bump at 30mph.

EDIT: he sent this pic

Sorry to hear about your spill TC. I know that feeling of hitting the pavement in a split second and it sucks. I hope that collar bone heals quickly without that bump.

I'm new here, but hope Turbo recovers quick.

What about the issue this brings up??

Does this suggest that putting apes on a china bike is a sketchy proposition b/c hitting a bump could cause the headstock to fail? I can't imagine how much that would suck. One second cool, next no steering. Yikes!

Anyone else heard of this happening? I always planned to add apes, but now I'm not so sure.

Looking at that picture makes my nuts go numb and sorta ache as they pull up in my body.

Please, use good quality parts. That is scary as you know what.....not trying to give you a lecture Mr. Turbo. I wish you a full and speedy recovery.
