convert cylinder into bending pipe #2420

I read this thread completely and make it reference to create a bending pipe. I would like to create 3d bending pipe with mesh on it. Below is my code having a textured and meshed cylinder and a plane.

I tried with THREE.Tube and tubegeometry but could not make it out.
How can I convert this cylinder into bending pipe ?
