A car hit me and my bike doesn't ride the same.

LVU · 01-19-2012, 04:44 PM

A car recently made pulled out in front of me and i went slamming into it at a good speed. I recently got an estimate on fixing the bike and its around 5k in damages. Nothing is really bent as far as the frame, but the bike doesn't ride the same anymore... Has anyone had experiences like this?

I have an attorney my injuries are a sprained neck, contusions on my whole upper body and small abrasions all over my arm.

I really want the bike replaced are at least riding the same, but they keep telling me theres nothing else wrong that they can find...

Similar experiences... Advice?

You sure your frame isn't scraped up a little somewhere

Yes sounds like bent forks if you ran into them.

I would say forks too ... but that slider looks pretty bent so are you sure that the frame is straight? It took a good hit I'm sure. I'd take it to specialist and have them check it out and possibly total it out
