great timing !!! i feel sorry for the dude though
those forks almost like double crowns. if they are thats why your head tube snaped you have a hard tail and all that travel it's going to snap eventualy
i think its a chick no? if not crazy hair but omg wicked timing on that picture as if u got that wicked GRATZ
yeah... well i dont feel to bad for that guy cuz he did put a dual crown fork on what appears to be a bike with a more xc geometry.... well u live and u learn... prolly wont do that ever again...
FOR CHRIST SAKE WHY THE F**K DID YOU PUT A DC FORK ON A HARDTAIL!!!???? .... oh well...that's the effect of stupidity....don't ever do that again !!!!

If you got that from the cove adverts in MBUK, you should look again. Dont bring a TOOTHPIcK to a gunfight...

I got similar kneepads like rastafaris about 15 years ago when I got a pair of crappy playskool skates for christmas. I was about 4 years old though. I´d rather wrap newspaper around my knees than using those crappy knee pads.

What we can learn from this? Don't put double crown forks into a cheap xc-hardtail and ride it hard downhill.......
[Reply]
What does that even mean? I mean...can you even pronounce that?? Seriously, kids and their slang...it's cute.
[Reply]
Well, do you really think she needs better knee pads? the bike she was riding isn't the best so you got to think the knee pads were the perfect ones for what she was doing.

you cant just say dont put triples on a hardtail you fool.
look at evil bikes,
theyre all built for triples with lots of travel.
probably a rubbish/defected frame,
as opposed to the triples.
still, an awesome shot,
even if only for amazing luck with the timing.

ya, it's a shitty xc bike though, check out the 6" discs in the front...someone was trying to make a budget dh bike, lesson learned haha
That's unique photo, I don't think there is another one like this showing breaking head tube... Hard to catch things like this on photo, it's only cause of fortune!
lesson learnt? dont be a dick and run triple clamps on a hardtail! becuase it will come back and bite you in the ass!
lol, who eva took that must be quick on a cam!!! lol unlucky! yea it probs snaped cos ur running triples on a hardtale.
[Reply]
dam u are all dumb there are tuns of hardtails that run triples...many come stock with triples..so no waht your talking about when u decide to speak....funny shit on the picture by the way im guessing luck with the timing but good stuff all in all
right....yeah ppl who run triple clamps on hartails are dicks....and wot crappy hardtails come stock with triple clamps? a saracen x-ray?
there are norco's that do. and ive seen banchie morphine's in stores w/ doul crown. im sure their are others. i rode my norco 250 from 02 to 06 w/double crowns and had no problems. its just cause its a shitty/weak frame.
watty knows what hes talking about. triples on hts are pointless. for those people that want to look cool but cant afford a fs.
[Reply]
uuuuuuu that's gotta hurt ;] btw. hardtail+triples may be ok, as long as u got the right geometry of a frame to take triple fork
I've seen hardtail 7005alu frame wth Marzocchi Monster and guess wot ? It was workin' !!!

[Reply]
I think DH races must be done with DH bikes, and the picture showed the reason... I don't feel this one as a pod imho. Bye
[Reply]
[Reply]
[Reply]
hey - there are tons of hardtails that are used for dh, look at banshees and .243's
this bike is just obviously not one of those - look at the rear triangle
still, a pretty cool pic

HA SHOULDNT RIDE A FUKIN RIGID GET A STRONGER BIKE NO RUSTY PIECE OF RIGID SHIT OUT OF A SKIP ............. GD ON U FOR THE HELMET THOUGHT SAVIN GRACE
oh yeah and my 03 brodie bruzza had stratos s7's on it and it wasnt the head tube but the chain stay that cracked. lol.
FFS, A hardtail DESIGNED to run tripple's/doubles whatever is FINE, but most hardtails ARE NOT designed to handle the stress, meaning hardtails DESIGNED for dual crown is fine, but that one obviously is not.
MBC UR U CALLIN MY BIKE HA MY BIKES SHIT U SHOULD LOOK AT UR MUM SHES THE VILLAGE BIKE AND MORE AND U SUCK MORE COCK THT A GAY PORN STAR FUKIN SMAKED UP SEPTIC MESS....................
bahah how ever funny i find his comment! the funniest thing is how ur gettin annoyed oevr soem1 calling ur bike shit! mayb boast about riding better but boasting bout bikes is a bit sad! its how u ride not wot u ride! im lucky i have a f*ckign decnet bike and can ride :-) so shut down to the both of u!

Definately have a COD (Crash Of The Day) section on the site! Then we've got POD for big/gnarly/cool whatever, and we can all have a good laugh/cringe too! Crazy pic...
[Reply]
uhhh well if you wear footy shin pads and run triples on what looks like an xc frame what do you really expect, muppet!
Yep, truly screwed. Double crown forks on a HT, football shinpads! Can you get any worse. NO sympathy from me!
dude thats savage. Looks like a rather hectic way to ride a bike but whatever floats your boat really. Oh and one last thing... those forks MAY snap your frame if your not careful mate
[Reply]
hey, STOP sayin shits like: "shitty bike, thats what happens when u run shitty forks, or get a dh frame". the guy is ridin a shitty bike cos probably he cant afford a dh bike. hes from costa rica. do u even know how much is the average salary over there? u americans, canadians, britains and specially bros from northern europe countries hv a f*ckin great sallaries. sumtimes u only need to work 22days 9to5 to b abble to afford a Foes frame. i make $2,44 an hour... u hv no idea what is spend 2 years saving money to get a decent bike. europe is not that great. portugal,greece and most of european eastern countries hv ridicoulus salaries mst of d times u make less than $500/mount. we not even can afford a pair of mavic deetracks.. plus,, in europe and central/south america ppl jst care bout that f*ckin dipshit thing called soccer. and governments trow all the money for that shit. ppl hate our sport. and only rich boys can afford DH. that sorta shits hurt. thats why i wanna go live in USA for life.
_no offence but i gess that before u start talkin shits about others bikes, u should take a look in your fox 40 rc and see how luky u r 4 living in a developed and fair country with fair wages.

I agree !! And want to say that it doesn't matter what you are riding on !! What matters is how you riding !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know lot's of people that have nice bikes , but they using them as chairs !! they just sit and look ..................
he just pwnu all, oh and me i have 40's but still i didn't say he had a shitty bike! just that he shouldn't run triple clamps on a hartail! so basically he could have done himself 2 favours
1. save money and buy some worthwhile single crown forks
2. buy single crowns so his headtube wont snap!
and its called football pll not soccer! however much i h8 football the thing that really pisses me off is when ppl call it soccer! damm yanks taking the sport and giving it a stupid name!

he has a really good point but the things we buy in america cost a lot more i thinkthe average house costs like 500,000.

[Reply]

but great pic its sick. and funny
yea yea yea I know some hardtail frames are ridden with tripple clamps buut man c'mon its probally a bit better to have a stronger frame if your gunna do that or not so big forks. but still feel sorry for you bro, must be gutted as!
his fault. comment my pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ha thats sucks big balls, ive seen that shit happen it sucks big time but thats what you deserve when a big for goes on a shitty hardtail
hey bikeaddiked101, u called me f*ckin idiot. but i took a look in you're album n guess what? its empty.. u r a hater. i would love to see your bike skills.
i pull 180s to fakie to rollback, footjam endos, abucacas, no handers,nofooters, pedal grinds, 2 feet high bunny hops, x.ups, crankflips n bunnyhops barspin. what about u?
did u ever pull a clean bunnyhop?
did u ever pull a clean bunnyhop?
You do all that shit, man oh man, i mean i dont have shit in my album and im not a totally wicked rider, but i mean if your gonna slam some one about their lack of pics in their album and then brag about all the tricks you do, at least have more than a pic of you dropping like two feet without a helmet on an xc bike. and just to prove im not a hater, the unequal distribution of money in the world is sickining, so someone should do something about it, but dont go slamming us canadians about it my friend, luck of the draw buddy luck of the draw, keep shredding though. and guys dont hate him juast cuz he slammed you, he just hasnt learned to control his temper
Hey ty3... on what grounds do u base your statistics on canada's average income...oooo thats right u made them up. O ya, suck my cock
ok everyone, its a screenshot from a video therefor it isnt some amazing shot. you can tell because its blurry and small.
[Reply]
hey ty3 suck my balls, thats all the tricks you can do, you have to practice some more, k like come on, the only reason that i don't have pictures is becasue i don't have a scanner, so yeah you really suck at biking, no offense to anybody else just him
[Reply]
Thanks to everyone for hitting an all time low; to all the idiots arguing about triple clamps and hardtail, to the retards questioning the rider's gender, to the morons trying to string a proper sentence together and finally, for the shitty picture.
pure pw0nage.... what a nubcake... i bet he'll never ride without a full-face again! lol [i've broken a frame like that b4]
[Reply]
look everyone that said this shouldnt be pod ur wrong i mean the chanses of having a pic like this are 1 in 1000 maby ;and there are tons of hi quality pics of sick riders doing sick jumps and sick tricks whith sick backrownds so in terms of probabilities this pic is much mor worth pod than any other
someone is going to breake some bones
poor girl :/
this girl is more man than most of the guys here commenting ^^
DEATH OR GLORY, GO HARD :]

This thread is a load of horseshit, first of all you can put a dc fork on certain hardtails, neaver heard of banshee's kegger headtube? guaranteed against cracks or ovalisation with up to an 8" dc fork. And finaly whats up with the pods these days? im not saying they suck but certainly they have seen better days....
[Reply]
[Reply]
Wow that would really hurt but what a fluke that the pic was taken right when it happened would have been better without the spectators
i love how her foot is dug a couple inches into the ground.......perfect timing by the photographer you cant get any better then that
[Reply]
triple clamps on what looks like an XC hardtail..........must be summit wrong eith their head...........looks like thats gonna hurt tho..props to the camera man
[Reply]
I have just suscribe to this site and I saw a bunch of comments about the picture that I don´t even post in here but it´s me anyway. I think that all of you talking about my bike and my knee pads are those kind of people that start doing downhill cause they have money and they do it to impress people with their bikes and uniform but I bet that most of you don´t know a shit about riding a bike. Your insults are just showing your stupidity but maybe that makes you feel good cause when the time to ride comes you can´t even use your bikes for what they where build for. That was the first race that I ever run with the only bike I could afford at the moment, so if you are going to laugh for that go ahead rich boys. Now it´s a different story and I wish that some of you were here or that I could go there to beat you by some minutes and show what the bicycle in that picture teach me a couple of years ago.
