Sure, why not, it is steel. Besides, teeth are replaceable.

i need to get this fella rolling again - he'd buy a new bike, but none to be had at that price point.

I want a 930 that time has for a trailer puller gravel duty

If it isn't kinked, straightening should be fine.

Agree


Buddypal can double down... Fix the fork then use the money for a new stem

This. If it is undamaged other than the bend, it's okay.

The tools to bend it back straight are $$$$ though.

The tools to bend it back "straight enough" might be cheaper?
looks like it is both folded in, and torqued.
Very little chance of me getting it to work.....
