The stem bolt was so munged that I had to use vise-grips to remove it. The fork is still bent, though I beat on it some to make the steering tube straighter. So why am I spending money on parts for this bike without straightening or replacing the fork? I've decided to get it back on the road and see how it rides and how much I ride it before I make a decision on doing something about the fork. I'll ask the framebuilder who is building my custom frame for advice and go from there. Originally Posted by margo49
