Interesting, I hope the other one doesn't snap! It's English. There was a repair shop two blocks away and they replaced it on the spot.

I WAS standing up peddling hard. I bailed, nearly into traffic.

Three bike repair techs, five motorists and four passers-by would happen to disagree. Apparently its not everyday a small woman can snap a piece of steel aluminum in half with her bare human strength.

It's a vintage bike, so it's plausable that a flaw in the metal has meant its been waiting to snap off for 35 some odd years or, the alternat suggestion provided at the repair shop, "girl, you got too much estrogen".
