STORY

So apparently Pearl Drop Teahouse there is a hidden curb that we must warn everyone about that Kelvin hopped over and curbed his wheel..... Sorry my mistake it is beyond curbed.

Heres a picture of the wheel

VIEWER DISCRETION



Moral/Conclusion : When you go to Pearl Drop Teahouse, watch the curbs !

sucks to hear....i hate hidden curbs

holy fuck man, that sucks kelvin. I guess you'll be looking for a new set or just gonna find a single replacement?

Ouch man that looks painful

Its really funny how you guys and even us viewers on site cringed at the sight of it. Even as he was being flatbedded he was too low and scrapped the floor real bad we were soo worried!

But Kelvin for some reason did not break a sweat:fulloffuck:

LOL I sweat where you didnt see.

Big ups to Vdub333, Matsuda, Mananetwork and -kt? for being there while it was being loaded. I've never seen an extended bump around a right hand turn like that, all I saw was the side walk, which I already lined up for a wide turn, not wide enough for that fucking extended curb apparently. It was all first gear coasting too, no gas given to cause the damage.

Miraculously when we unloaded the car at my house the lip and bumper stayed on... now if only I can get it fixed before the summer meet. Heres to hoping the bent rim can be fixed. Thanks again for the pics, what an epic bubble tea trip

i take it ur not comin out wednesday now ? fuck =[

i've parked there a million times and correct and me if i'm wrong, but are you talking about this curb?

Yeah tahts the spot. Me :failed: There was an oncoming bike coming across that intersection so I focused on that, and as it went by I just eased it into first gear and ran into the curb...

@ CBRUGG: Yeah I prolly wont make it wed

shit.. i was leaving pearl drop and I saw you going east on hastings

^ thought that was you but it was dark and kinda hard to see with the traffic and such.

hope you can fix it kelv :(

that sucks k3lv...your car is the next best thing to an evo, hope you can fix it

Damn! Hope you get your baby all fixed.

I could have sworn I saw your car parked at the DC this morning. Sucks to see what happened...

Ouch... you almost have to put a NWS tag on the pic of the rim :(. And seeing the car scrapping on the flat bed is cringe worthy.

Ouch Kelvin. I hope you can get it fixed ASAP.

I know how it feels. Bent both RPF1's on both side when I went over a raised pothole cover during road construction.

My buddy ended up buying the wheels off me recently and he got the bends fixed at Panther's in Surrey I believe.

Kev

Really? Dude come ask for me next time ur here lol. I'm going part time in sept to school again though
Hey Kev thanks. The wheels are now awaiting pickup from Nubrite

Damn I feel bad. You were on the way to get our stickies.
Hope its fixable.

Just missed you guys too eh? I had to go shutdown machines at work.

someone drill a cone into that curb. so ppl know.
