Most bent frames can be fixed to be straighter than new. I'm not sure if Dale has any companies that do that work in the vendor's section of the resource site. Have you checked there?

I was talking to someone aabout buying a frame but didn't know how bad it was. Just found out it's probably worse than I hoped.

Still looking for a frame or roller.

Had to make repairs on a couple of H2 frames. I would give it a good inspection check for cracks. Measure and laser make sure the motor fits!
