Tange! Everything on that frame was salvageable. Seriously and practically salvageable. It was lugged, you could have replaced the top tube. It was double butted cro-moly steel you idiot, what you did was a crime.

well, obviously some people here have some ego problems calling themselves "Master Fantastic" and then going around dissing people in subjects they have no clue in.

By God man, I hope you aren't Canadian. If you are, then you're giving us all a bad name. Actually do some research on bikes first.

Good thing, keeping some poor sucker from killing themselves. As soon as a bike gets even a slight DENT in it, you better just through it away.
To everyone who thought this was all salvageable, please. Do your homework, then come up with an educated statement/criticism. This guy is obviously smart enough to know the consequences of his actions. Wrecking it= no one hurt. Not wrecking it= someone finding it, putting it back together, and then riding it and the whole thing falling apart.

lol @ replacing the cracked tube on beat up, rusty, and crashed winter bike. You could buy a nice replacement for the price of having a reputable frame builder disassemble, cut/mitre a replacement tube, braze it back in, cold set the frame, strip and repaint. Talking several hundred dollars.. minimum.

You strike me as the type that would buy a new car if it got a door ding. Just because you cant get your head around the concept of repairing a damaged frame, doesn't make it unrepairable. It's wasteful to have destroyed that frame. You must be an American.

@KittycatWrangler Great demonstration of clear thinking and considered conclusions. In reply: no; yes it does if repair cost far exceeds the cost of replacement; and no. Trying to make this simple enough for you to understand.

Why'd you break the F'in fork for?!

@whysdarknesssobad Fork was bent just below the crown with stress cracks too. Sketchy!
