Wait, Tom! Are you _STILL_ claiming your frame tube had a
dent, and your normal riding caused it to somehow cure
itself, that the dent popped back out???

    I guess a mechanical engineering teacher cannot understant the words "slip and an alternate mode of deformation, twinning, are the only way that crystals in silids can be permanently deformed."
 Frank, did you miss that in college? Were you sleeping in class? is THAT why you couldn't operate as an actual engineer and reverted to an alternate form of earning a living? Enquiring minds want to know?

I trust Mr Krygowski understands permanent deformation in steel tube as well as you or I and probably better.
Your tube was either deformed or it was not.
