so i destroyed my frame on the weekend..... what do we think?

did you ride it with that much slack in the chain?

no, i ride with a tight chain so i can easily track stand, the slack chain is a result of the twisted frame.

Is this a subtle beholdmyawesometorque boast post?

yes

More seriously - if you're attached to the frame, take it to a frame builder and see what they say. Looks like one of the stays may have been damaged and has bent around the damaged point under load.

i actually work with a couple of chaps who design obscure bicycles (cant give any more info because it narrows them down to one group), they consider it written off because the drive side chain stay isnt bent in a local position, but the entire length. plus there are about 4 other places the frame has bent :(
