Its failry inexpensive to find a frame on ebay or here that does not have and bends or breaks. The problem with fixing a bent frame is that a lot of places can not do a reputable job of fixing it, besides possibly cause weak spots in the frame. Trying to fix bent frames is uaually something I don't recomend.

So what your sayin is that I just throw away a 250$ frame everytime I damage it... Sorry man, I don't know about you, but I'm not made out of$$$. I don't race or anything, It's just for puttin around the woods.

If your just putting around in the woods, you should not be bending frames... unless your rolling it down hills... I would try to get a used one like duffman1483 said and you should be set. If you repair the old one there is a good chance it will be weaker.

I know the cost sucks, trust me, I keep a reproduction 400 frame around cause of jumping, crashing, and a lot of burning. It's really unsafe and could potentailly be very dangerous. Yes the cost sucks, but what about the cost of you getting hurt riding a weakened frame.
