Fixing frame issues
 
Some frame breakages are pretty catastrophic. They tend to go along with major personal injury too. However, for more minor crashes there are ways of fixing the bike sufficiently to ride it out.
 

Dent in frame

Even the nastiest looking dents will normally hold together long enough to ride out.

 

Broken frame

Assuming the concussion you got wasn't too bad, what can you do to get the bike home?

 

Broken handlebar or seatpost

Turn a pain in the ass into a comfy ride home.


Twisted handlebars

Steering straight and still riding in circles? 


Saddle breaks

How do these things come loose from their rails anyway?
