are you sure you didnt bend the headtube/toptube as well?
Plus, depending on the condition of the fork, and the material... you might be able to have shop bend it back....
make sure the rest of your frame is cool. Sometimes the fork impact bend the top/down tube as well.

Ijunes the kilo comes with a threadless 1" fork and stem they're uncommon but they do exist and you can get 1" threadless stems. If he were to go threaded he would need a new headset as well as the adapter and probably a new stem.
Anyway to riding high, try going to the kitchen, if you can't find a threadless fork you could try looking for a really big old threaded fork and cutting it down too.
