I cant see how people bend them, iv hammered my dt over some nasty pot holes and never done any damage to one,
But even so id take the performance upgrade of the metal ones and risk bending one for the sake of £5 to replace it if it does happen
Infact saying that, i Flat spotted and cracked 2 wheels bent all the strut top out (top mount mounting part) into a dome shop onn my old DT and the drop link was fine, you'd have to hit somthing dam hard to bend one and the drop link would be the least of your worries,
