Bikes: Are faster than yours.

Calling all BF quality/breakage inspectors - need your keen eye

As many of you know I augered in on a 18' drop nose first on my 2009 Bighit 3. After the crash a few guys looked at my bike and said i either bent the head tube, fork steer tube, or fork stanchions.

I didn't think anything was bent. There was no binding when I turned the bars and I could not see a bend. Fork travel felt fine. Today I pulled the fork - inspected the steer tube and the head tube. Ran a feeler gauge around the headset cups, all gaps were equal. So far the only issue I could find is the totally bent rear dérailleur hanger.

Take a look at pics below and tell me what you think:
