Default Need a piece of pipe

Has anyone got a 2 or 3 foot long piece of pipe with about a 1.25 inch inner diameter that I could borrow? I need to straighten my Elite rep's frame, so I need a piece of tubing that I can slide over the rear forks to bend it straight. I just need to borrow it for a day or two. Any help is appreciated.

It's going to have to be metal...I need to bend the back end over about 12mm for it to be straight. It will take a fair bit of force.

It came like that from the factory. I guess the 8 year old who welded it together didn't make sure the frame was straight on the jig.
