Be careful, the new to you, used frame could be out of whack.

I'm a little late here, but like TerryH stated, when I bent mine I stripped off all plastics and took my cross measurements. That was a few years back and I don't remember exactly how far off it was, but I took it to a shop. They were able to help a little but not much. As I recall they would pull it straight and as soon as tension was off it would spring back to being off again. They needed to pull it past straight, and let it spring back to try to get it straight. The paint started cracking off the welds and it was decided to to try to tweak it any further.
