Might be a bit late to chime in here...
It depends on the type of tubing as to how easy it will be to bend. Where I work I do a lot of bending of SS tubing (chemical engineer). If the pipe was intended for swagelok type fittings, then it will be annealed and soft enough to bend with a hand bender, as the tube must be softer than the fittings.
