Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
So this is the method I use to straighten a bent fork, It literally takes about 5 minutes. The black tube I'm using here is part of a floor jack handle.Most of the bent forks I've encountered are bent @ the steering tube and these are the easiest to fix The tube is slid down to where the bend occurs, in this case is was at the very base. I've also used this method to fix forks that were bent to the side, the only real difference is that you have to install a hub to brace the legs. Unbending bent fork legs can also be fixed like this but the blocking gets a little more involved.
