What do you do when an accident leaves you unable to enjoy the sport you love to its full potential? You get up, dust yourself down, design and 3D print a new arm and get back on the bike. After paralysing his right arm in a bike crash that’s what NotBroken’s Tom Wheeler did with the hep of product designer Poppy Farrugia and PDR. An inspirational story about triumph in the face of adversity and the joy of rediscovering the sport and feeling you love. A beautiful little film.
