Got the opportunity to buy 2 cannondale frames a 2.8 and a caad 7. Both are dinged in the drive side of the top tube in exactly the same place, (different owners! )
Bearing in mind they both need a respray is it worth it? the dings aren't that bad but enough that you'd still notice if they were powder coated. I dont know of any way to fill a dent for powdercoating
Which is the better option? Both a similar price. I already have an old cannondale so I know and like how they ride but they are harsh . The caad7 would be comfier, but is the ding in the thin optimo tubing likely to be more of an issue down the road?
I got a coin sized ding on the TT of my caad4. Going on two years now methinks even though I'm not exactly delicate with the bike. Still going strong.
Wouldn't buy it with one though...unless the price reflected it.
