That would have been the answer had they both been bent the same amount. Got nothing to loose tbh, will try n strighten em. otherwise its a set of Tange's

I straightened a seat post recently for a show bike and i used a little heat from a hair dryer. Sounds stupid i know but it gave it that little bit more flex when i applied the pressure. Dont use a naked flame though
