A friend gave me this BIANCHI frame because he hit a car with it and bent the tubesalmost exactly as yours are. He found the handling "too squirrely". I built it up with extra parts with the intention of using as wall art. Howeverr when I took it out for a test ride one niight I was very surprised at how well it rode and handled. Fortunately the frame wasn't twisted by the impact. it's a very nice bike. In fact I can easily ride this bike no hands.

You can probably ride that frame but be aware that toe overlap with the front wheel will be greater. Unless the price is a giveaway price I'd pass on it.

Cheers
