...............

TCR - 12500km before riding into a wall at a CRIT 

VENGE - 26000km before a somersault and a brain bleed.

SuperSIx - 42000km before 2 tik kops asked for the bike then ran after me. 

...........

From the crashes, we have something in common ;) , from the mileages you cover, not so much  :blush:

I have had new bike day so thought should make it new bike day for someone else as well.

 

Fixed the stunning 1000gs shimano shifters the original grease was solid. Have put slime filled tubes in, bought a pump and a lock.

 

The other savages have donated Lyzne lights and a bontrager helmet. It’s being picked up today.

It baffles me how that could happen though. I can't see such a massive torque being applied to the pedal axle, or such a large axial force, that you'd strip the threads completely. I'd definitely give that a fair chance at a warranty replacement.
