Would you buy a dropped bike?

I think all but one of my bikes have been dropped,
Mind you all my bikes have been 2nd hand

If you figure most and by that I mean more than half have been dropped at some point (and many more than once), then all you really need care about is how it looks and goes.

I'd even go as far as saying a written-off bike which has been repaired to standard and successfully gained a 308 certification would be straighter than your average "uncrashed" bike - but then that's probably a bit too controversial for this site as some numbskull will probably claim I'm saying any crashed bike is repairable.

[rogson]

Yep, but only if it had a steel frame.

I understand what your saying about not wanting a dropped bike, bad for your karma and people will laugh at you, you will die of shame. I'll give you $50 for it
