Ahh, I got hit by one of these. I was cycling home from school and I cycled by this T-intersection, which for some reason has 7 meter high hedgerow and a lot of foliage. I always take move to the middle of the road to give me option if a car were to burst out.
I hadn’t expected the car to be understeering heavily towards the outside of the corner. Luckily because I was on the road’s axis, I could lift up my legs as the car smashed my bike out from under me, I managed to curl up into a ball, protecting my head. My backpack smashed the windshield, which span me into a flip. Landed on my head, around which I had my hands wrapped, dislocated my pinky and scraped the hell out of the back of my hand, which then started bleeding quite well.
I stood up (carefully), and the guy in the Probe was wide-eyed, almost crying, he thought he’d killed me. Called insurance, swapped information, the incident fetched me 1500 euros and a new bike.
My parents wanted to settle for more, but the dude was clearly not the best-settled man, so I asked for less, I wasn’t hurt enough to claim 4k…
TL;DR: I got hit by one of these, did a good thing and didn’t extort the guy.
Stance scene + crazy camber, but without bags, meaning you’re always on the ground.
Why.
It just looks stupid.
