Kona Blast has this had a smack?

I came across this advert on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224510707061?hash=item3445e18575:g:JEAAAOSwGtJg1jAY

Does it look like the forks have had a smack?

I know what you mean, doesn't look right.

Yeah it does. Different spec but gives you an idea of the forks should be facing

It's either a photo taken using a potatocam, or it's had a fairly significant front end impact and bent the fork crown/stanchion tops (more likely both)

I had a paper round bike that was about £30 it was an Emmelle.
I used to do various flats and didn't want my bike getting stolen.
Let my mate use it for some mountain biking. He bent the forks, like very bent.
So we turned the handlebars round the other way and kept riding it into the sea wall until it looked straight.
