Yup, dropped mine on the test ride when I was looking at it to buy. I was going around a rotary no more than 15 mph, front tire rode up on the right side of a small buckle in the road as I was leaning left, I'm guessing the side wall of the tire is all that was in contact with the road at the time, and the tire simply lost traction, and down it went (at least that's my story and I'm sticking with it). I was so amped up on adrenaline I simply lifted the bike right up on to the kickstand without even thinking about it. I, of course, bought the bike, it was just too beautiful to pass up on. I also acquired a nice new broken rib out of the deal. But hey, the bike is now mostly repaired and so am I.
