Japanese are way better than Chinese... there are two nations blamed for this travesty!

Naah it looks like a Chinarello Dogpoo, besides we don't know how it broke. For all we know he could have been taken out by a taxi...

Damn. To be fair tho. That's just the fork and many many high end bikes are made in the east and stickered and boxed up in Italy or wherever.

Just riding along or did he hit something?

Is that here in RS and A?

Are those white things sprinkled around, his teeth?

Besides he should be more concerned riding with a 105 crank, even on a fake Italian bike, and those floral hubs? What's up with that?

Looks like a run of the mill front end crash to me. Change the fork and it's back on the road by tea time.
