I have not ridden this frame. 09 Super Six. Funny thing is, this is a warrantied replacement frame for my 08, which failed at a bond.

So, would you ask for a replacement or not because of the chip above the hanger. Yeah, it's a very small chip, but it obviously happened when the mechanic installed the hanger. They didn't tell me about it.
The shop usually takes care of our team so I don't want to ask if there's no need to. But the spot it's in worries me. Guess that's what I get for going all carbon.
My thing is the thing is supposed to be new, not dinged. I guess I'll keep it but there's no way to know if this will be a structural issue until it fails.
