R.I.P. crashed ....lotus/ rainny day ride

built this on the cheap. frame 15$,forks headset bars stem and seatpoast all for 30$(thanks matt),cranks 20$, cog 15$ bar tape 7$, and all the rest from spare parts pile. you can build a fun bike for less than 100$!!!..... sold this one to Ratbones. while on a night ride ratbones crashed into a pole at the bottom of a hill so he was going pretty fast. he didn't see the pole and must of hit it square on the head tube because he bent the top and bottom tube. as for ratbones he broke the fall with his face, dislocated his arm so bad that the bone was resting against his ribs. After a trip to the hospital some drugs and a reset of his arm he is doing OK . he is sticking to "it was the poles fault"
