Yeah, the alloy will never bend like the plastic one, but the original chassis with the alloy chassis/top deck is absolutely solid! With the chassis cuts, flex joints and upper deck reduction it now moves about as much as an all carbon fibre setup. ie still not much! Better than before though... I don't think the chassis is permanently bendable! I tried!
