Hi all,
I recently bought a Rose SL 2000 pro bike which I have still not had the chance to ride. Just a few nights ago, as I was assembling the bike, I noticed that there are quite a lot of paint imperfections on the carbon forks, I myself could look past some of these because I think that a lot of bikes are plagued by this due to the process of painting carbon parts (I might be wrong, I am a newby), but what I saw next made me unsure if I just had a bad apple…
As you can see from the picture I have attached, on the bottom of the fork, you can see a clear dent where the wheel hub attaches.
Bearing in mind that I have only had this bike for about 5 days, do you think it’s worth sending this back and getting it exchanged?
What are your thoughts on the dent and the pain imperfections?
Thanks,
Ohms.
