My scandium mtb was involved in a brutal roof-rack/garage door collision
that tore the seat off the rails and scraped the top tube (but no dent).
Miraculously the bike has no visible cracks or dents and is straight. Is
it safe to ride? It was a 1260g frame on my scale and I couldn't believe
it survived.

for sure you would need to check the frame alignment. If you are
concerned about it, have it inspected by a professional.
