My shoulder and ribs took the worst of it, nothing broken but off the bike for a couple of weeks. I had Syncros full carbon rigid forks on it, they didn’t snap but seem to have lost structural integrity. If I pull the front brake and rock the bike they flex an alarming amount, like a lose headset. I wouldn’t trust them again any way given the hit they took.
It rides great, I have considered selling it to help fund a new scalpel or epic as a new baby has clipped my bike buying wings but I can’t bring myself to do it. Not so keen on the new one because of the lack of sliding dropouts and different seat stays.
