this is what having no brakes does I was told it needed stitches, but im going to try and treat myself on this one. Been in enough accidents to figure out how to take care of a wound. Luckily I didnt hit my head this time. |

yeh you should get proper treatment for the knee at least. my right knee looked very similar after i fell off a motorcycle in 2003, rubbed off a good portion of the skin, and deep. Didn't care too much. It left a large, ugly scar. Congs for riding a bike without brakes lol, |

gutted. i thought this may be pics of the crash in motion. like a mid air, flying body, face of fear shot with much slapstick hilarity showing you anticipate the body slam into a wall wrapped in bike parts. seriously though, get some brakes. |

Wash that shit out and put neem oil on it, which might be able to prevent significant scarring. |
||||||||

ahh looks very painful , brake failure or just no brakes to begin with ? lol |
||||||||

great photoshop! Haven't seen a lot better back in my day. |

I dont ride fixed mohawmed, thats too gay for me. Single speed, no coaster or hand brake. Cars can suck my d. About infection, I'm washing it and packing it full of neosporin. Its deeper than any other nug of flesh I've had nicked out of me before, but it looks like its healing oer fine. Luckily the elbow are (some call it a wenis) is a totally nerve free, and unnecessary flap of skin. If anyhting it'll leave a sweet scar. I've been in for stitches before, and although I know docotrs need to be paid too, I'm not about to sit around and be swen up for $2,000 when I can easily ride on and wrap a soaked bandana around it to stay tight and right. Freqy, my palms were okay. got a nasty big bruise up my left leg and some road rash on my hip/stomach. It's a pain to stand up, but my mind will drift from that and going about the day becomes easier. darkpromenade: |

Would have been so cool and lucky to have that! |

Dude, you ride a freewheel bike without brakes? You're fucking crazy. Stick a brake on it, or you'll kill yourself. And your chains loose. Pop round to my place and I'll sort it out for you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That was taken right after I put my single speed spacer kit on, so the chain has been shortened since then. I had a H4t0r bR4k3 on it where the back brke lever was on the seatpost instead of the handlebar. Unfortunatley my brake pads dont reach the rim on that back wheel. I can always stick my foot in the tire if I need to slow down about, but I figure I might as well just barrel through instead of being a wimp. |

Just adjust the brake cable! Your "alternative" braking methods do not seem to be working! You crazy kids and your mad cycling ways! I've swapped to a single speed for the commute into work three times a week.... far more enjoyable than my roadie for the 14km ride... hard work uphill on the way home..... 46-17 and i bought myself a pair of nitto RB-021 bullhorns! :) |

hang on a minute, you ride without brakes? aughh.. you should be careful.. damn man |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

The calipers are too small to reach the rim I should say. Very nice gearing! Uphill would be cake with that! I'm riding 52 16. How far is your commute though? I'm thinking of buying those same exact bars actually whaddyaknow. Careful as can be, larney. |
||||||||

|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My commute is 8.75 miles each way. 52 16 is nice and tall! You would have been flying when you came off! Make sure you change your stem to something really short when you get the bullhorns. You'll feel WAY stretched out compared to your flat bar. I went to a 60mm stem and it feel just ok. Cranking up short pinch climbs out of the saddle or sprinting through traffic feels great! Tecktro bar end levers will fit in the RB-021's, so you can sort your braking issues out at the same time! Get a cheap caliper! |

Do you have a threadless fork? I want to see a picture of your bike. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I have a threadless fork 1 1/8" steerer. My bikes just a SE lager, cheap and nasty, swapped it for an old beat up car. I don't have any pics, but it's ugly as hell with brown paint and shitty cranks. I would love to spend some more coin on it but we're flat broke at the moment, having bought a new house and a new car for the wife in the last two months. |

shit i forgot you don't get health care for free |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey at least you wont have to worry about anyone trying to steal it! As long as it gets you where you need, I say its better than paying for gas. Not to mention to new change in scenery on your rides and a positive health factor. Mohammed, healthcare is free for DIY'ers. |

Na, I was just not looking at where my tires were rolling. Right into a hole in the ground. |
