So, my bike was pushed over for the first time yesterday. Not the most pleasant of views when you get to the parking after watching a movie. Fortunately there was not cosmetic damage, but, the handle bar is now twisted and bent on the right side. Does anyone know where I can buy/order one here in the UK and how much that's going to set me back?

Cheers

Sorry to see your bike on the deck. The Idiots have no respect, i bet they wouldn't like their mountain bike or BMX trashed.

I would start on ebay for replacement bars, then as a comparison try a couple of dealers. I would also get the bike checked over because i have read that the air filters can be damaged with leaking fuel, etc.

That's really Sh1tty of someone to do that, but I would have picked it up before taking a photo :eek:

Good luck - maybe try an aftermarket one such as Rizoma or Renthal. :thumbup:

I spoke with the mechanic today, it looks like they may be able to straighten the bar. It will also have a 'once over' done just to ensure it has not sustained any more damage.

Cheers
