My wife went over the bars with the cheapy v brakes and cheapy levers on her Raleigh Detour. She did not get hurt. But upon me test riding right after the rear derailer got wrapped up in the spokes.
Once she was passing over perpendicular to an 8 inch wide x 20 foot fissure in the road about two inches deep and crashed. Again, unharmed. I am guessing somehow her 35mm front tire got hung up in the split in the road and stopped the bike. Once I got my pedal touched on a curb and endoed on my Giant Defy bike. Once my 23mm tire on same got caught in sidewalk mold line and crashed. Once went off MUP, and crashed upon front wheel not making it back up blacktop at 45 degree angle. Was new rider in all three instances. Got hit by car on my Bleriot. I praise God that me and wife not injured in these crashes. Just minor scrapes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
