I have a 2014 Propel SL in M/L. Uncut seat height was 830 with no shims so you can add around 15mm to that.

Yep, have a bike shop assess the bike. Their likely response is that they cannot vouch for the bike's safety and hence it should be replaced. If the frame is metal (steel or aluminum), they may sign...

Hopefully that was meant to be a joke. If the OP isn't willing to ride the frame, then either trash it, give it away, or sell it with full disclosures (and hope the buyer is...

I'm thinking it would also be rather difficult to rule out a blow to the fork even if it didn't happen on the initial...

I'm glad to hear that the OP is well enough after a 40 mph crash to ride again. Not sure I would be.

I'd get rid of the fork. If the frame rode straight and true and close examination revealed no sign of damage, I wouldn't worry about riding it. Unless it was a frame I didn't care for all that...

I think that would be my first question.
