Crash bent the fork

I learned today that the Maui crash bent the IF fork on my Seven bicycle.

My bike had 4.5cm of rake, the horizontal distance from the extention of the headtube centerline shown as the red dotted line to the centerline of the front axle.


After the accident you can clearly see the fork has been bent nearly eliminating the rake. I think this was caused when the brakes locked up and not by any impact forces.
