We see auto transported bike with issues all the time. The most common are paint and cable related. I have seen some frame damage too but that's not the norm. The real concern, besides kinked cables and scratched paint, is a dent or crack from the rack's arms or a second bike's pedals.
I do find it so short sighted when someone spends a few thousand on an uber light bike and then carries it on a really cheap car rack. Andy
