Hey
Looking for a bit of advice.
A frame I'm looking to buy as a crease on the seat tube / down tube near the purpose made cut. The previous owner ran a 29mm seatpost in a 30mm down tube and appears to have crushed the tube ever so slightly.
If I buy i'm looking to run with a 30mm shim and 27.2 grav dropper.
Question is ... is this frame knackered and unsafe and will the crease crack ... or is this pretty superficial?
Thanks in advance

Aluminium ?
It will almost certainly crack at the crease.
