I enjoyed this bike for all of a few hours until I was creamed on a test ride. Photos reflect damage; wanted to document before I strip it and begin my next beater. Unfortunately I took most of the impact (giving up my spleen, a disc in my spine and having some internal bleeding patched up), so the bike isn't too bad. The fork is killed, 2nd pic shows bike standing upright. The seatpost is tight, that's just the angle it is after being hit from the side by a big honking SUV who ran a red.
Ride safe.
