Checking forks over

Is there anywhere that I could send some forks off to after a crash to check them over and make sure they're useable?

Cheers

You can send them to the guys at Ktech for a once over but to be honest, as long as there are no visable bends I would just ride with them. You will soon be able to tell if they are damaged as they won't feel right

Quick test is taking out the stanchions and rolling them across a flat surface, ideally an old mirror/piece of glass etc. I personally have an old section of kitchen worktop which is ok for this and big enough for fork stanchions. If they curve then they're bent. Thumbs Up
