Likely they broke while you were jumping and you had just now happened to put that little bit of pressure necessary to finish the crack off. Hope you didn't get hurt!

Cheese grater

Saw the thumbnail and nearly yelled "Alaska!". Can't wait for this summer to go back there, especially with robby's new rig.

They spin freely. I ride with heeled insulated hiking boots, so each time I put my foot on the peg, it rolls to a consistent point against the heel, in the arch of my foot. This was initially going to be temporary until I attached pedals to the bike, but I think I like this better.

You can see the guy in the second row, second from left showing off his scar from that awesome crash he had last season.

No kidding. I was curious myself when I started this and I saw a set for over $600. Doing your own work and material sourcing makes a huge difference.

Not counting the bike frame, suspension, headset, stem and handlebars, under $100 for materials.
