Both seatstays cracked fully somehow I lasted this long. I have a new bike. Not aggressive but very fun to ride

I did during the first signs of the first crack. It was my daily rider. Transportation for everything. I couldn’t afford a replacement as I wanted to continue with the brand. I snapped my chain on the spicer recently. Now waiting on new chain.

I forgot how to start threads (Rider down section). I haven’t seen that bike since I’ve been hit by a car into another on Oct 19. Police impound most likely. I’m currently undergoing extensive rehab and wish I could turn back time https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Stamford-bicyclist-crash-East-Main-Lawn-Avenue-17521717.php

Rooting for a speedy recovery mate! Incredibly sad stuff.
The 27-year-old Stamford resident who was driving the pickup truck received a ticket for making an improper left turn.
Also this... What the hell even, just a ticket?

Thank you. I am still a fall risk. Sorry for hijacking current projects. Can someone instruct me in starting threads? I lost the end of my left ring finger, middle finger being held by two metal rods/pins?, broke left clavicle, fractured left rib, bottom front teeth got pushed in/chipped, fractured scapula, impact heavy on my upper left arm, fractured tibia, spleen is gone, stitches on my head, fibula (not sure don’t remember). I just got discharged yesterday from rehab and will continue my rehab from home and/or outpatient facility. Back to current projects.. the spicer, well, never saw it again. My dad will go back to the police station when he can. I wish this wasn’t the case, and I have an improved bike to show in jpg form.

Fucking hell, that's horrific. Hope you heal up soon.

The bike was left at the scene of the accident. The police officer’s reasoning is that they couldn’t fit the bike in the car. Who knows where the bike is.

Impulse buy because it was unbelievably cheap and I felt ready to ride a bike again. I did circles in my parking lot at 5 am. It’s so heavy. State bicycle warehouse deal. Coaster brakes are funny. I was able to step off the bike but lifting it and going up stairs was torture. I live by a beach with fairly quiet roads and not so busy paths. That could be my bike exercise come spring.

Now for my loss.. I bought a 130 cinelli stem on eBay not really investigating the pictures of the product and it came with a stripped bolt that just spins. Doesn’t loosen or tighten. I was anxious, depressed and wanted to build something similar to my previous bikes. The salsa bar is nice at least. I could saw the bolt from the opening and look for a replacement. :( double brake coaster road idk just ideas stemming from isolation. *** updated. Impulse buy quill stem bike and I didn’t know certain drops don’t mesh with a quill stem. I need to chill.
