bent steer stem

[iamabowler]

was riding in the trails today hit a trree and bent my steer stem. it a lsr stem. Can i have it straightened? its not bent that bad but you can definatly tell it is may be 1-2 inches backwards.

also will it hurt anything if i just ride like it is?

I would think that a machine shop would be able to straighten it out.

I rode on my stocker for almost a year after it was bent backwards.
