In addition, it seems the chain is a tight, but sure fit on the .75 side of my chain checker, so I will be replacing that. Cassette seems fine though.

Aside from the above, everything is great. Unfortunately, I can't take it out until next weekend...but I guess I am part of the club now
That's some pretty good rash on the shifter. Mine "tipped over" at about 15mph and didn't get nearly that scuffed up. If it's time to replace the chain, the bike has seen more than a few miles. HOWEVER, it's quite possible that the frame is fine, and I hope it is. Enjoy the ride, I love mine.
