"Did you see clearly? My bike is worth nearly $130,000! You have broken it and you have to pay for it. Mr. Li said angrily to a man.
Mr. Lee cherished the high-priced Trek bike he had just bought, and finally found a chance to show it off with his friends. Just as he was happily about to ride out to play, a man suddenly broke the entire bicycle by a man.
Angry, Mr. Li quarreled with the man's parents, and after the incident spread to the Internet, netizens quarreled about the reasonableness of Trek's high-priced bicycle claim and the division of responsibility for the incident.
Trek's bicycle was knocked over and claimed
On May 7, a controversial event caught everyone's attention.
In the evening of the same day, at the entrance of the flagship store of Cui Ke Bicycle on Anshan West Road, Nankai District, Tianjin, a minor man dressed in black accidentally knocked down a Cui Ke bicycle parked next to him.
At the time of the incident, the man was parking his bicycle, and the P1 Phantom Rainbow custom livery Trek bicycle next to it was damaged to varying degrees due to the accidental impact.
After the incident, Mr. Li, the owner of the car, had a heated argument with the man and his parents over the cost of repairs.
After the collision, Mr. Li demanded that the other party bear the resulting high repair costs.
Mr. Li said to the boy's parents, "My Trek bike was worth nearly 130,000 yuan when I bought it, and I bought it not long before the incident, and I only rode it twice, and it is almost brand new, and you must compensate for it." ”

However, the man's parents expressed unacceptable acceptance of the cost of repairing the bike, "It's just a bicycle, just to repair it, and you dare to ask us for such a high amount, we can't accept it at all." ”
Another parent of the man also argued, "While it is true that my son is responsible for the accident, you did not put any warning signs next to this car stating that it was an expensive bicycle."
If you had clearly marked it at the time, my son might have been more careful and it wouldn't have happened, and you have a lot of responsibility for it. ”
In fact, there are other reasons why this parent said this in addition to the above reasons.
Because the bicycle that was hit was not supported by any support itself, but was parked against the wall, this type of parking also increased the risk of the vehicle tipping over.

In addition, the maintenance price of Trek's bicycle is too high, and the charge for collision damage is actually charged according to the "touched point", and the charge for one point may be 600 to 1200 yuan.
If the car is repainted, the price will only be higher, and the boy's family will definitely not accept such a high repair cost.
In the case of a dispute between the two parties, the police came to mediate the matter, which did not involve intentional damage or porcelain touching, and mainly relied on the two parties to negotiate compensation to solve the problem, so the police could not do anything.
On May 8, Mr. Li entrusted Tianjin Fangnan Law Firm with full authority to handle the crash.
This incident quickly spread to the Internet, and netizens ate melons one after another. Actually, there are many examples of claims made by the high price of Trek bikes.
Other examples of claims after a Trek bike was hit
On April 9, 2024, a traffic accident occurred in Hongshan District, Wuhan, when Xiao Ni was riding a 120,000-yuan Cuike bicycle owner under the viaduct, and unfortunately collided with an electric vehicle driving in the wrong direction.
The accident caused serious damage to the front wheel of Xiao Ni's bicycle, and the traffic police ruled that Tan, the owner of the electric car, was fully responsible, but Tan was unable to meet Xiao Ni's claim for compensation of 32,890 yuan due to financial difficulties.
The two parties failed to resolve the issue of compensation through negotiation, and Xiao Ni was ready to resolve the matter through legal means.
Soon after, another man was also encountered, and like the electric car owner, he was asked to pay a high price for compensation after knocking down Cuike's bicycle.
On April 30, 2024, a man in Wuhan accidentally knocked over a parked Trek high-end bicycle, causing the vehicle worth 50,000 yuan to tip over and be damaged.
After the accident attracted attention, the bicycle was sent to the official for repair, and the repair cost was as high as 38,148 yuan. The dealer explained that the carbon fiber frame was expensive to repair, and he wanted to make sure that the vehicle was restored to the original standard and replaced the frame completely.
Through the above examples, it can be seen that the recent high-priced claims of Trek bicycles have occurred one after another, and these two events have caused a lot of controversy, making people frightened, for fear of accidentally encountering this incident.
At the same time, on May 7 this year, the collision of Cuike's bicycle in Tianjin also caused controversy.
Netizens' evaluation of the 130,000 yuan Cuike bicycle being hit
The incident in which a bicycle worth 130,000 yuan was hit and the owner demanded compensation of tens of thousands of yuan has aroused widespread attention and discussion, and netizens have diverse views, mainly focusing on the following aspects:
Some netizens agreed with the Trek bicycle claim incident, "Regardless of the price of the car, everyone should respect the property of others." Damage to a high-priced bicycle is a significant loss to the owner, so we support the owner in demanding compensation from the boy's parents. ”
Another part of the netizens criticized the parking method of the car owner, "The car owner parked such an expensive bicycle only against the wall, and the car did not have a stand or the owner did not take any protective measures."
This practice increases the risk of accidents, and part of the responsibility should be borne by the car owner himself. ”

Many netizens expressed their shock at the high cost of repairs, "Do all the damage have to be repaired at a high price?" ”
Another netizen expressed dissatisfaction with the maintenance method of Trek's bicycle, "The bicycle is not an ornament, why is it completely broken when you touch it?"
And it can only be repaired according to the repair method of the damage point or the entire frame, which is too unreasonable, it is simply an overlord clause, which is simply a proper PUA behavior for customers. ”
Netizens commented on the man's jumping incident from a variety of angles, no matter which angle the problem is analyzed, it seems to make sense.
However, since many examples are asking for compensation of tens of thousands of yuan, it seems that this may be the market situation, not necessarily blackmail, so I still hope that everyone can look at this matter rationally.
