Ohhhh... You had to go start this off again didn't you. :P

The bike sounds a bit more damaged than I initially thought, hopefully your rim and brake disc are ok.

Like many others have said in the past. If money is tight, just get it ridable, forget about the cosmetics until you can afford to get them fixed/replaced.

I have some discs you can have for nowt. They're right on the service limit but they'll do until you get some pennies together.
