Your choice. Worked fine on my caad12. I expect the frame to withstand 70kg smashing into a London pothole, a couple light taps of a hammer don’t worry me
PhilDAS-
I'm not worried about the frame, I'm worried about not evenly seating the bearings which leads to premature wear which means I have to replace them sooner (or the spindle) which makes me mad. I hate working on bikes and it seems to be all I'm doing at the moment. In recent times I've taken the "get the right tool for the job" attitude if it means 1sec less swearing at bikes in my life. I am not a patient mechanic..
hippy
I could but I'm not going to. Both bikes are being raced and I save my best hammer work for the Condor and the Inbred.
