Every now and then, you'll see here in Pit Bits pictures / stories of various Team's Pit Carts. Almost all of then will have a Bar and Subframe bending tool. I think stillwelding here makes a fair few of said Pit Carts, by the way. But, as Tumic said, there's quite some risk with re-bending an Aluminium bar - well, anything that has been bent to permanent distortion, but Aluminium, especially so. I'd only ever try to straighten Very Slightly tweaked Aluminium bars, and then, they'd be promptly replaced after the race was finished. Back to the often present Handle...

The bars in the 80’s were made from steel and were way easier to bend back than todays aluminium bars. And a far bar bends easier that a bar with a crossbar, when i rode enduro i always used twinwall bars just for the strength. if you try to bend a aluminium bar back again that is as bent as Dangerboys was, it’s prone to snap.

Man I was hoping he'd get a good fill in for outdoors. Dude crushes it outdoors would have been fun to watch. For for him though to get a fill in over there.

Not sure why Max can’t get a good outdoors ride?! Would have liked to see him on Deano’s bike!

I mean he didn't really set the world on fire last Summer. He did finish strong though, so a bit shocked to see he hasn't gotten a chance yet, but I'm not sure McElrath has yet either. Savatgy to Kawasaki makes sense because he rode for them in the past.

1983 count?

Now 2/3rds of the way to Gofundme target to help Adey's mum Jackie with funeral costs. Please support if you can. Kudos to Giuseppe and Ursula Luongo for their substantial contribution, much appreciated!
