LOL, I was actually going to say in the pics of the bike that Yes the fork is bent but I forgot to include it.
I'm not embarrased to admit I didn't notice it, I should also mention that the 1977 Raleigh was the first bike I had ever rebuilt so I was learning a lot in the process.
I actually painted it at home and even the guys at the local bike shop were impressed with the finish, it rides really well even with the bent fork, it rides straight and true and I've put on several hundred miles on it this summer.
I am keeping an eye out for a new/used fork for it, it's kind of tall though which makes that tougher to find and since it rides so well I haven't been in a huge hurry.
I'm really fond of those Camelback frames myself, too bad they only built them to suit shorter riders because they really are sleek looking.
