Yeah that’s a good point. Looks like it’s wanged against something in a way that couldn’t have been done while the clamp was on.
Should be easy enough to bend it back? Or since it’s new are you going to just try get it replaced?
My 1x1 had its headtube badly dinged in shipping, I bent it back and it’s been fine since.
Ha, it's @Heldring's frame, not mine - i was just sticking my nose in :-D
But it does look like it could be easily knocked back in to shape - as long as there's more than 2mm of seatpost inserted, it should be fine!
Probably true. But I'm going to return it anyway.
