So you've dropped your bike..
No worries, so have 98% of the rest of us!! I have done it twice.
Seriously - it happens. Sometimes it's bad, other times you get lucky - but it happens. |

3 also. I'm lucky the way the foot pegs are designed to work with the bike if it falls over, because otherwise I'd probably be fucked. They never let me fully drop it... yet.

My buddy dropped it in grass the day I got it. Ive dropped it once at a light when my foot slipped and once turning onto a gravel driveway.

foot slipped when learning to ride my first bike. after my ankles were messed up I dropped a bike loading it onto the lift at work, didn't matter because it was fur covered and pretty much screwed up but I was replacing all the messed up parts on the bike already and I didn't damage anything that wasn't already damaged. still didn't feel good about it though. |

Buddy of mine dropped it, then I have dropped it twice to far.
All I can say is that my Woodcraft frame sliders saved me on damage every time and that you can just turn the bar ends around so the scratches aren't visible. |

I've never dropped any of my bikes.
