[Closed] OOOOPS Broken Ventana Content!

Yep, that's broken.

terminal?

Well the weld held ...

terminal?

nah, bit of superglue and some sticky tape, be reet.

Just riding along?

just push that o-ring back on the shock and it'll be good as new.

Oops.

Thats gonna ruin yer day.

sleeve it with a broom handle - job's a good 'un

I'm assuming Alan at Riverside is sorting this.

I am led to believe that the Ventana warranty and customer service is very, very good.

how old is the bike?

are the cotic hemlock was in front as this happend he could not keep up put his foot down and bang all over, cotic came home in one piece british design at its best while i had to drag the broken ventarner home in my van 😆

That'll buff out.

wow, all those over sized tubes and swingarms... huge welds and chunky BB... and then they have a tiny seat tube with a front mech clamped onto it, and this has all the force through it!!! seems a weak point...

That makes one less ugly bike out there.

showerman, have you not heard of the hemlock sagas?

don't think that part is structural... you'll be fine 🙂

1st Ventanna I've seen break.

but how?
mine is 5 years old now, still working nicely 🙂

It's the same colour as my Ventana X5.

got me worried now

[gets up to check the tandem/].......
....but then I sit at the front, it'll only break at the back.....

[sits back down again/]

It is my bike and to be fair Ventana and Riverside have come up with a reasonable offer on a frame exchange policy they have.
Just not sure if I can afford to take them up on it right now with christmas and ventanarider junior on the way!
I can't believe i'm saying this but a buggy (offroader of course)and all the other neccessaties might have to take priority over a new bike

you will have to change your stw name to exventana rider, say to alan next time you speak, i bought a turner of him many years ago, just say hi from adrian

i wonder if mine might break????????????
