I figured I would wait for Mel From Tandems East to get back from the tandem rally to get his advice. In the mean time I called a local Cannondale dealer to inquire about a replacement fork. I was told that if my steerer tube was bent then my frame was also bent. I have looked it over and seen no other signs of damage but admittedly I'm no expert.
As I was backing into the carport I first hit the rear trunk rack and also my Thule rack was moved forward about 8 inches so there was some give.
Would I be out of line to throw on a fork from one of my single bikes and just ride it down the street to see if I feel anything funky?
