what's the frame made of? Dints are usually OK if the frame is still aligned....take a look at any pro bike.

The Frame is:
True Temper OX Platinum Steel spine/OCLV 120 GSM carbon cockpit, 1.5cm headtube extension

Take a look at this picture. The dark is Carbon, the Silver is Steel. I put a dint in the right chain stay(steel)

Should be OK. dints in steel are usually superficial.

nice bike, BTW 🙂
