And my initial question still hasn't been answered in any serious way (Although someone mis-interpreted that question into "advice"). We've got lots of predictions of end-result catastrophic failure, hoped-for good dental insurance, impending death...But no theories about the actual process of frame failure that will lead to all of this.
Seven pages.
"Crack, crash." Uh huh.
What do you think that means? Do you think the crack will propagate the entire length of the head tube? If so, will it then roll open? Or will the front end get so wobbly that the rider will then deicide to stop? Will the crack stop at the reinforcing ring at the top?
Lots of fear mongering. Not much actual thought.
(Why should I be surprised? People still think my rims are going to explode at 140 psi).
