We’ve NEVER Seen A BB Shell SNAP Like this?! 😳 – Racers often use ultralight race-weight prototypes.

Well this could happen to any bi…oh, carbon fibre again
Carbon sucks
Lol! What sort of crap frame is that? How can one lose a bracket?
next time better 🤞🍀 🤞
Yo ni loco me compró un cuadro de carbono, me iría mejor a los cuadros de aluminio y sí voy más allá un cuadro de titanio
At least it didn't implode.
Yor bike swop 😅❤😂❤
carbon-fiber … 😂😂😂😂
K vergüenza si me pasa eso 😢
You must used a "*allimium alloy100%"*can better then carbon 100%not more then better same like"* a allimium alloy *"like what you used it's today in ……??….. that lower's class and "lousey matel' not gulty and not good for bycicle racing but it's is good for loser boggy class for BMX only need. Beware it's proppley if that that your fault because you choose its !and also shoopsaller odered bying that cycling shop too be careffully because it's that not Quilty200%haighies tool inside thier parts ascesories too .
Crap bikes
Garbage Quality
Carbon fiber …not for bikes
These are all cheap inexpensive carbon fiber materials,
You need a tri weive and double weive with multiple layers into the middle and mirrored on the way out, especially around head tube and bottom bracket,
There's alot of unknown side to side forces going to be applied,
He's lucky it happened there and not in the woods, he could have lost his twig and berries
😂🌶🍒
Note to self- carbon fiber isn’t good for submarines or bottom brackets ✅
Why are they doing that?
We lost something
😮😮😮😮😮
fake product👏👏👏👏
carbon LOL
That framewas made in China 😅😅
In terms of durability on frames? ALLOY IS GREATER THAN compared to carbon
Too much hunger for lightweight. Bottom bracket mounting is compromised.
Weight saving methods getting out of hand.
Who needs quality control?
That's what happens when you bought a disposable bike
Sabotage…inside job….lol
carbon moment
This is bad for marketing. So much for the "German engineering".
😂😂😂😂
You pedal with hopes and dreams with that bike 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Bikes made of plastic
Look in Google What is arc8.
Here from pinkbike
Well it's better if we use alloy than carbon some manufacturers Value lightweight so much that the Filaments get thinner and thinner that When you put power on it it snaps the BB shell area Alloys don't break Though They're a few hundred grams Heavier than carbon you can trust the alloy no matter how much power you put on it it will never snap fun fact about aluminum alloy is when it's welded it becomes 10x stronger Than the the original Metal itself it means they don't break they never will it doesn't matter how you treat it you send it up flying Taking turns Jumping Hilly Roads Going into bumpy roads It just depends on your bike build if your bike is aluminum alloy then you want it to be a downhill specific bike role Just put parts for downhill rides if you want it to be XC just put XC build on it if you want crit put bigger chainring smaller Cogs and rigid If you want it to handle jumps just put parts specific for your Use carbon is overrated yet weak they say it's lightweight more stronger stiffer that's just claims to make people believe Them But thay was never true yes carbon is lightweight but they're not as strong as alloy they're Stiffer but not stiff as alloy carbon is superior in terms of lightweight And looks only because they have no welds So they look good Alloy is superior in terms of Shear strength lightweight Tensile strength Everything some of you might argue me but i have one thing to say If you collide carbon and alloy test which one will break first can carbon survive? Ofc not because it only takes One crash to break a carbon and Throw it away once it gets destroyed I'm outta here I trust aluminum alloy and titanium rather than trusting a Weakass carbon Who breaks Easily with One crash one mistake and one only
His cranks MUST just be too long
The BB is the worst place to cheap out on structural integrity… it looks wafer thin there towards the back.
This is why I will never ride carbon frame 6061 for me please and thank you
STEELISREALGAAAANGGG!
Too light.
This is why you go for Giant, Specialized, or Orbea
No name
THE FREE'EM'S GIVEN OUT
😂
Bottom bracket came off thr freeeem
why they have there seats so high like
Ok name and shame time which company is it
Press fit ???
9000 watts straight to the ground 😂😂😂
