hi anons, i'm that BSO dude who posts on PYBT
recently i was commuting back home from work and i hit a crater i forget appeared on the middle of the road (about 20cm deep) and it bent my fork's steerer tube, pinch flated the tube and wheel and also bent the rim a little
i'm worried about the damage the impact might had on the frame, considering that it is unusual for the steerer tube itself to bent this much (after impact the inside bearings were visible from the front and sides.
is it safe to put a new fork (or possibly straigthen the current one) and keep riding like that? or is the frame lost? uni is starting soon and i'm broke so it would be unfortunate to have more stuff to spend money on and also loose my main transportation
