Good question. The dent was done by the PO, who then filled it and painted the bike, and sold it to me. I noticed the cracks, spreading out from either side of the (hidden, invisible) dent, and took some sandpaper to the frame to find out what was going on. With this bike it would be easier to see what is going on, and I honestly don’t know how long it would be before the dent sprouts cracks- might be years.
My dent was on the top tube just before it joined the seat tube.
