I used to have a bike that had a part of the frame that looked like that

...it was however a mini moto, and it got a new frame shortly afterwards

mmmm, when bike are Cat A written off the breakers are supposed to chop the headstock and return it to the insurance are you sure that this isn't from a CAT A frame thats had a headstock grafted in from an unrecorded but very damaged frame especially if you are talking about a bike thats under 3 years old and still worth a bit

These bikes are the tiny little monkey bike lookalikes that car firms/taxi drivers use to and they go in the boot of a car. I'll post a pic later.

There is a guy who rides to work in Oxford on one of them. Looks terrifying - he is about the same height as the bus wheels! I actually considered geting one for my camper van, but I'd only use it to potter about on, not in heavy traffic. They are bloody tiny!
