Even though it very much did when compared to a pic of the same model.
here's one in profile, and a close-up of where the fork meets the head tube. The bottom half of the headset is aligned fine and I don't see any obvious bend in the direction of travel or otherwise. the crash in question came from a loss of traction in loose dirt -- luckily, there was no front-on impact so i don't believe it was bent backwards at all?
