Repair Question Carbon frame
Hello ,
I put on my rear wheel yesterday and I noticed the paint flacking off the rear dropout. I dont think it is carbon as it has an alloy look. Is that normal ?
Also there is a chip in the paintwork on the top tube , 1.5 cm in diameter. Cant see the carbon, its just cosmetic. Any ideas ?

I have carbon dropouts and the paint is flaking on them. Doesn't seem to have messed up my bike, Also you probably dont want to see the cosmetic damage I have on some sections of my bike:
Ride more, worry less. Your bike is fin (So says a random guy from the interwebs)
