Not sure if it's because the bike is rather expensive, and hearing the "dink" 'clink' from the small rocks on the road hitting frame makes me cringe everytime...
Most of my routes are alright, there is just about like 100-200meter every couple miles that are paved but have like small rocks (loose gravel/asphalt) that do get kicked up and strike against the downtube/bb/fork/chainstay...
should i be concerned?

No but if you are stick some helicopter tape on. It will stop cosmetic damage.
Mountain bikes take a lot more punishment than bits of gravel and hold up fine. CF is tough stuff.I don't do smileys.
