Another Dented Chainstay
Hi Folks,
I bought a 2012 CAAD10-4 about 3 weeks ago.
Less than a hundred kms, mostly indoors since I got it.
Found a 2.5 cm dent on the top of the drive side stay and 2 horizontal cracks in the paint.
The only way I can think of the damage occurring is by striking it with my heel while dismounting.
This is my first aluminum road bike and I would never have imagined it to be so fragile.
Anyone else seen this kind of damage without really knowing how it occurred?
Back to crying in my beer.
Thanks,
Jan S.
