I thought at first that the lower forks were gone, but I think they stay in place. It looks like they're shorter as the shocks compress when the bottom of the forks hit the road.
I could be wrong, of course.
"Mmmm," he thought, "I wonder where that wheel came from?"

Unfortunately, the camera is too high to capture the road right at the moment the wheel breaks off. Although, unlikely there would be anything on the ground that would cause that to happen. I wonder what he was thinking as he started to fly up into the air, still mounted on the bike. "Hmmm...this is odd. I'm not getting much feedback from the front end. I might need new tires." Or, "Why haven't I stopped? I grabbed the front brake as HARD as I could!"
