Crashed with a Ebike
« on: August 24, 2026, 02:20:44 AM »
August almost passed, in 5th Aug, I planned to ride a 60km after work, but when I just cycled 3km a wrong direction e bike crashed my bike. Luckily both of us were safe and sound.
So I called traffic police, found that dude was only 6 days to 18 b-day, and its all his responsibility, and we both signed the bill, so later I went to hospital to take CT, and took my bike to a pet hospital for X ray.
And also I sent my bike back to decathlon to check other damage, sent back my wheels to factory to rework.
On 11th August, I have sent the excel and all payments to his father, yes it is his 18 birthday.
20 mins later his father transfered to my account.
2300RMB (340USD total)

Wish all the riders could be home safely.
Chinese rider with weak legs, but would like to share info between China and oversea.

I'm glad you were both ok. I never would've thought to have the bike and wheels x-rayed, especially at a pet hospital. How did you talk them into doing that? Did they charge you for it?

Thank you for your caring, yes actually in China there are riders who crash or buy new frame would do that, not too many but yes there are some.
I have asked 3 pet hospitals but they all denied, so I turned to a riders group to ask, they told me this one could do X ray for frames, so I went there paid like 250RMB (35USD)for 5 pictures, the original price is 25USD, but they said frame is too big, needs to take 5 shots. The kid's father paid all the cost to me after, so I dont mind how much they charged me. LOL
