Virtually flat botomed it though, while nose diving. To be fair lots of frames are gonna let go under those conditions.  ???

I think the bike took the some of the speed out of the fall.   It must have done to break!

It could have been a lot worse with his piss pot lid on!!

Good to see him walk away!!  :daumenhoch:
