On the subject of crashing steamrollers, I'm convinced it takes a pretty catastrophic event to really wreck these things. I took on two pot holes riding down a hill doing probably 25+mph one night and wrecked mine ass over tea kettle. Needless to say I ended up more broken than the bike, save for a hunk of my saddle, a flat tube, my helmet and some bar tape. Very clean looking ride, cant beat the maroon and black paint job.
