Hey yall, I have frame sliders on my baby...took a spill, and now the bolt is bent. Two things:

If i keep riding with it bent, will there be a problem? would there be more of a problem if i fell with a bent bolt?

Also, as i would not like to bolt to bend in the future, any recommendations? even if its a bolt typcially used for something else

Pictures help.
I would think you are okay as it is right now. Spill again and it'll just bend more from what I am thinking.

I think you want the bolt to bend in a crash because the other option is it snaps off.
