Is this bent or okay???

[GavinKent]

Just received my Mongoose Californian F&F in the post.  The forks don't look straight - the top part isn't exatly in line with the bottom.  Do you think they may be bent, and if they are, can I still use em?

Thanks

pm  mister mongoose   bobafett   "john "   he will tell you the angle / how much paint or chrome should be on them  / what the blokes name was who welded them and what colour undercrackers he had on that day

They look correct to me.  They all have a fair old rake on 'em.

Yeah that looks ok, maybe slightly bent but only by 1mm. Alot of the mongoose stuff is different so i woul'dt worry about it. Ive got forks that are straight in line and some that have a slight bend in em like yours, its just the way mongoose made em

as long as that bend is forwards then they are ok.
