It's a great bike and since my old one was stolen last year it's about time for a new one. I got a pretty good deal on it, otherwise I would've gone for something else.

Wow, where in the frame did it bend? Before ordering the bike the only concerns that people I talked to had about Rocky Mtn was that the quality sometimes was hit or miss.
What size frame did you get? I spoke to our RM rep and right now they are sold out of their 15", I got the 16.5". The bike has been getting great reviews and I know at least 2 guys (bike techs) who placed orders and one co-worker that also wants to get one - I wonder if the pressure of higher sales affected their QC?
Since you got it recently I'd try getting in touch with them and seeing if they could do something for you - fix or replace. You'll probably have to wait a while, but it's worth a shot.
