I messed up BIG time today by absentmindedly putting her in first gear from park and beginning to ride away... without removing my **** Kryptonite Disc Lock. Needless to say I realized my mistake at the first clunk and cursed myself as I went immediately over to the ground.
Ah yes... Three hundred miles in and THIS is why I drop it? I inspected my bike shortly after and found the brake lever slightly scuffed, the exhaust had a thin line of debris where it had made contact, and the handlebar was scuffed. Everything else appeared fine.
I thoroughly examined my front tire and it appeared it had taken no damage whatsoever. All of this did happen at very low speed, however I am paranoid. Nothing is loose or even scuffed including the brake system and disc. Should I be concerned? I basically do not want the thing to disassemble on the road. I'm 125 miles from the first inspection, I rode it for 20 miles after the incident with no problem, and nothing appears loose or damaged, including the front break. Do I send it in for inspection? Anyone else ever done this before?
