You people rolling with loose rotors and cracked top tubes. Wild! 🤘😂

@nickroche8553 Ай бұрын

yeeehaw bro! new frame coming soon... heard its a red wagon!

@malcontent_1 Ай бұрын

Good luck replacing (or fixing) the frame. So unfortunate.

@the_rzh Ай бұрын

Every time you squeeze the frame, the crack propagates and you de-laminate the carbon layers.

@sperrotin Ай бұрын

I am sure your frame can be repaired. The guys at Carbon Bike Repair (who helped Francis and Justin in the US) will be able to sort you out.

Rotten luck…Big fan of Vitus frames. I do Carbon repair and recently repaired big hole in downtube of Vitus Cross frame…. Well worth getting it repaired Lawrence if you like the frame and enjoy riding it.

Not bad luck. It’s from sitting on the top tube. You should NEVER sit on the top tube of a carbon bike and the other two guys are doing it while they are looking at his bike.

What makes you a fan?

@@geetee4037 simply think they are decent frames,well made and good price( shame they are not being made anymore)

Darn shame...Vitus was a good brand. Do you think that carbon wizard who helped Justin Levene in the ride across america could help? The Vitus could serve as a backup....time for new gravel bike sponsor anyways. Thanks as always LC. 8:58

That just puts me off carbon .. too fragile

@bbikerlawrence Ай бұрын

I don’t blame you… however I’ve done 10 years without any issue, I guess my time has come 🫠

Roll of duck tape and some chicken wire and that top tube should be good to go.

@bbikerlawrence Ай бұрын

Hmmmmmm, I’m not putting chicken wire on my toptube! I’ll see what carbon repair say 🥸

Hey Lawrence ! Does this helmet ventilate well in warm weather ? thanks

@bbikerlawrence 16 күн бұрын

I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re riding in temperatures over 30c Celsius

@@bbikerlawrence I like the helmet. I can't justify the purchase right now, but the magnetic sunglass shield sold me (contacts for astigmatism have massive jumps between the steps that I'm stuck in-between so I'm pretty much stuck with glasses).

@ZenEndurance Ай бұрын

This happens from sitting on the top tube, something many people know you should NEVER do on a carbon bike. But the other two guys are doing it while they are looking at the crack. SMH. People, please stop doing this and ruining frames for no reason. And don’t buy these other guys’s frames used after seeing them sitting on their top tubes. Those will be cracked next.

@bbikerlawrence 14 күн бұрын

It's absolutely not from sitting on the top tube. Thanks for the concern.

You really need to color grade your videos or to record in another preset... Your videos always look dull and sad hahaha

It’s true, I haven’t changed anything but somethings off… (with full Lut applied) working on it 🫣

With respect to the law and the rules of the road, only one of these two will be held responsible. Bottom line if a motorist is not paying attention 100% but travelling in the correct direction in the right lane and another makes a right in front of the which results in a crash, only one motorist is responsible. Great effort put into the apportioning some to the cyclist but all in vain.
