Hi All

I was just cleaning my bike yesterday (Kinesis KR-810) when I found what appears to be a small crack in the bottom bracket area next to where the cable guide for the front mech come through the frame !?

I can't see if it's just the lacquer or the carbon !

I am off to the LBS tomorrow to let them take a look, Although I think the frame will probably need replacing .... it's only 1 month old so should be covered on warranty, but it's a hassle !

What do you think !?

    Looks like poor finishing as opposed to some sort of stress crack - stress crack would be hairline and jagged - this looks completely different - but I'm only looking at a photo - still worth the LBS having a look.
  • don't look too bad in the photo, like monty said get it to the shop for someone to look at in the flesh or would that be carbon
