Yeah, I thought bike wheels had spokes all the way round and not in bunches like that.

If the spokes had been all the round the furry thing would have made a better noise, or even a lolly stick like everyone else....

Reminded me of a certain persons back axle for a minute that. I never noticed the fur initially.

is it dead?

What!? I'd guess yes

Spokes and squirrel corpse appear to be stronger than the forks

No kidding. Scary weak bike.

I mountain bike fairly often and never had a close call with a squirrel. Rabbits often, a bear once, but never a squirrel.

I'd not buy those forks again, looks like they just tore the joint out the socket.

I once was behind a teenager who's bike failed at the same place from jumping off cubs (very thin tube used). Landed right on his face and I think he sustained brain damage (the ambulance driver first thought I'd hit him with the bus he looked so bad)

What have you cyclists got against small furry animals?

I think he means kerbs, curb is what you do to enthusiasm A friend of mine had a very expensive carbon frame break like that once :O

Who threw the Davy Crocket hat at him anyway ?

Unless the guy on the bike was a larger American trying to lose some bulk, and when the squirrel brake kicked in his weight broke it
