bent forks

[Dale Sonnenschein]

It looks like one of the fork tubes on my bike is bent. Does anyone know where I can get it straightened?

I do.  $68/pr. ( one hours shop labor) plus shipping. Use a hydraulic press with custom made head w/built in dial gage.  I have steel blocks (3) for most common fork diameters from 22mm thru 41mm.  Each block is bored to fork diameter which prevents marring or kinking tubes.  Been doing this 1970.  Remember if tube shows a kink or is bent over about 3/8-1/2" it is probably weakened and I suggest finding another set.  If fork tubes are "Franks" and have their name on them, forget it,  they are SOFT.

I'll have to take them apart. They don't look like they are bent bad, they just appear to be slightly bent. I'll try to get them apart this weekend.
Thanks
