Default Bent swing arm (pix)

The Axle is way to bent, i tried to straighten it with my forklift at work and let me tell you, no deal. (hey you never know unless you try)

How easy are these axles to bend? someone told me the G-force is not that great of an axle, but if it is $200 with a lifetime warranty then i wouldnt mind. I for sure need a new axle, What do you guys think?

I hate to spend money on the swing arm, man those things look like we can make them at work, all i need is to send out to get the lazer cut brackets and set up a jig. then i can have a few arms (+2, 4, 6 etc) So if anyone has one that is straight that i can borrow for mach-up let me know, we'll make you one too

Anyways I'm not going for full-on 40' jumps, just looking to have a little fun on the weekends.



Thanks
Xavier

I don't know about the G-force but I heard the Dura blue lifetime waranty will only replace the axle twice. Didn't think that was much of a "lifetime" waranty so I ended up buying a used stock axle.

lsr has the true lifetime axle. your local bike shop should be able to bend your axle back. mine got bent back for $50.00.
