OK, so i have my car in the shop and i go for a ride while they are working on it. I come back and
throw the bike on the roof rack. They then need to top it off with oil so the mechanic takes it back
in the garage but fails to get the garage door up high enough and hits it. Seat is tweaked a bit
right, and the front left mount to the car is popped off of the top of my jetta. Visual inspection
of the really dirty frame didn't reveal any stress fractures however I am leary to hop back on it.
The frame is a 2002 Specialized Allez sport (AL frame, white with red trim), ritchey headset and
knenisis carbon fork with alloy steer tube.
Assuming there are no visible cracks in the paint, is this safe to ride or should I have the shop
replace the frame. I'm leaning towards the latter, just to be safe.
thoughts?
