Re:
Just to add a different experience, I had a frame damaged in the same way but even my forks were bent too. I replaced the forks and carried on riding the bike. I think it lasted about a year before the frame snapped where the tube was wrinkled. I heard a creaking noise as I rode up a hill and when I stopped to look the down tube was split underneath almost half way round the tube. No great drama or injury just a slow ride to work.
