Crash yesterday morning, rather spectacular for what it was. Stopped traffic for a while since concerned citizens were concerned for my well-being. Daijobu?? Daijobu?? Yeah yeah yeah. Thank you. This conversation happened a lot.
Positives were, only I was involved, my helmet did its job and that was the difference between serious hospital type stuff and not. Bones somehow held up. Skin, not so much.
The bad, front end pretty mangled and a crack in the carbon part of my front wheel.
Got the front end sorted out at the bike shop yesterday, the lingering issue is with the wheel.
They said it will cost 70% of the cost of the wheel to get it fixed by shimano, or they could order the part and install it for a fraction less.
This is the first time anything like this has happened to me with wheels.
My question is, should I just ride it and hope for the best or get it fixed? Seems to be working fine, went for a ride today with no problems.
Thanks i. Advance for any advice.
