Bikespeak Deciphering

A ding is a small dent.
A dent is a big ding.

Although what constitutes "small" and "big" in the eyes of some sellers is obviously open to a LOT of interpretation!
 
"face plant" has always been my favourite when it comes to describing the act of inadvertently parting company with one's bicycle...

"he went arse over tit" is another :)
