Not two hours ago, on a trail that meanders through Leigh Woods, Bristol, which many of you will be well acquainted, I experienced a strange sensation – you know the one … where your mind is unable to correlate its contents in slow motion, but aware at least that something is not quite right. Hang on I know what it is I’M NO LONGER ATTACHED TO MY …KING BIKE. In fact I’m hurtling through the air like a tw*t.
The below will be the reason why!
Is an ATB/Whyte warranty up to much? I purchased the bike in 2007.
FFS the seat post was just shy of where it broke – there was ample seat post. Someone talks cobblers then it spreads like wild fire in true STW fashion!
Blimey! Gutted for you. If it’s any consolation my Raleigh Budgie snapped in half while I was riding it, the head tube just came away from the rest of the bike…I cried.

Seriously do people think there was not enough seat post? There’s nothing marked on the frame in terms of minimum insertion and I can’t see anything in the supplied literature. As I said the post was just shy of where it snapped. It’s no big shakes to me, I’ll have to see what they say.
