New frame arrived but has taken a knock during transport. The bottom of the headtube is bent inwards and it's impossible to get the bottom bearing in. Taken to 2 different LBSs and they both thought it might be possible to bend back and be OK (but didn't offer their services to do it). I was thinking of using a piece of wood shaped the correct internal diameter and tapping it back with a hammer? It's alu. What are people's thoughts on this one?
Seller is being OK about it - but wondering if there is a solution to get it on the road rather than give up and send back.
