Don't tell me to run metal pedals, I hate them.

Not pictured is several sprockets and a pair of overbite cranks.

i went through 4 sets on headset bearings in a super short time cause i thought i had a built in bearing crown. lol i can look back and laugh at that.

another funny one, the pedestrian lights say "cross" so i decided to crank it across and my two links in my chain snapped at the same time. and i was thinking it was fixable until the cars that watched me eat it ran over my chain. but its not the only chain to die on me.

bent some cranks, nothing special, but they were 22mm 3pc.

and the back of my stem shows sign of the alloy splitting.

Ive blown apart a Sequence majic stick peg. Apparently a manufacture fault [Image Can Not Be Found] . Steped back from a backwards hang 5 to a back peg wheelie and BOOM!!, no peg where the peg should be and me in a heap on the concrete.The thing shattered when it hit the ground. After Buff's bars breaking recently i wouldnt buy anything or recommend Sequence to anyone.

My Sick Child Rehab bars have served me well... I was in a pedal steam and I swear they felt like they moved in my hand... I stopped.. tapped a couple of times on the grip with my palm.. and it fell off... fark.

That reminds me of Sydney BMX Games '05 when Jesse Puente broke his bars in the same spot just pulling up the front wheel.
