>>1001632If the bike handles acceptably you (probably) won't die riding on a bent fork, though it's much more likely to break completely in the event of a crash (or a really big pothole) where before it only bent. Replace the fork as soon as possible.
>>1001633>>1001635In theory a fork can be realigned if the damage isn't too great, the problem is having practically the tools (and willingness) to do so.
