Hey well long story but had a bit of a smack on my bike this aftenoon and am now in desperate need of a frame 52cm sizing .
If anyone has anything at all buy or even borrow or can help me out in anyway would be truly grateful.

Boo! So sorry to hear that. That sucks! Will it still look pretty on the wall? Did you get anything off the person who reversed into you? Glad that you're alright.

Ah stix, dude. Gutting. I didn't even get to see it. Not that it's about me or anything...

Sad times but try to enjoy the search for a new frame. :D

Sorry to hear about this- a damn shame about the bike, but on balance a lot better for the bike to bear the brunt rather than yourself.

I presume that the car drove off?

In which case (as I am sure you have already done) report them to the coppers.

I'm not an expert but I believe that they take "failure to stop at the scene of an accident", "leaving the scene of an accident" and "failing to report an accident" quite seriously- I was accused of this and was awarded six points and a £500 fine (before they reversed the decision in my favour).

The police should give you the details of the drivers insurance company, and you can pursue them for a replacement 3rensho.

Really sorry to hear about this Stix, glad you're fine but as with everyone else terrible news about a truly beautiful frame. I had a knock on my new bike the other day and took all the damage (only a small scratch on me but a dented bonnet and broken wing mirror for the driver). First thing when I got up was check the bike

Yep only the passenger got out and obviously I was in shock pretty much in a daze and went to take myself out of the road along with the bike and turned around the passenger got in the car and they drove off !
Umm hello! lets swap details ok, then dont ...
Well got the number plate anyway make and model of car police are now dealing with it .
But pretty gutted but the main thing I am fine .
