LOL. trashed his bike because of a bent rim.
was that drama queen scene really necessary? everything on that bike looked fine except for the front rim. that's like a $50 fix for an OK wheel.

sharePart of the plot and nicely used.
shareAre you saying it wasn't illogical?
Or are you just saying that there was no way the writing could have been better for the plot to make sense?
I knew you wouldn't respond because you always see yourself out of conversations when you're proven wrong, but it's definitely not "nicely used" for the plot. There were actually many ways to write around it.
shareThat ran through my mind too. As broke as he is at that point, I'd take that bike home and hammer the rim and spokes straight.
sharethey shoulda totaled his bike to make it more believable
shareAnd it was the front rim which is easy to steal off another bike- or even find in one of many piles in abandoned lots.

Yes and that's usually the wheel left behind when a bike is quickly stolen so there should be lots of them around.
shareI think most the people responding forget that he wasn't intending on trashing his bike, when they took all his money it pissed him off more as if "what more is going wrong today". He wouldn't have carried it to the place just to trash it outside, he could have done that at work.
If you have to title and author your quotes, they aren't worth quoting.
It was his key to making money. He essentially threw away more money (that bike is worth a lot in his case) AND the ability to make it. No matter how you look at it, it was very very stupid of him to do and downplays the seriousness of his situation (and is bad writing). Don't want to lose your dad's car? Don't throw away your bike. Don't wanna get evicted? Don't throw away your bike. Don't want to be homeless? Don't throw away your bike. Don't want the Chinese mafia to kill you? You get the idea...
sharei think he could have done all the shifts in the world and he wouldnt have been able to come up with the required amount. hence why he trashed his bike at that point, knowing he needs to find some other way to make money.
shareBike courier throws bike because he could not repair the front the wheel.
It's that man again!!
