Had some braze ons removed from a spirit downtube. Just been doing the clean up and can feel the tube is slightly warped - is this anything to be concerned about? Or just part of where the heat has been applied. Thanks

I’ve removed quite a few brazeons and often find a bit of distortion, quite a bit.

If you’re happy that the removal job was done carefully and without any filing of the tube taking place then I don’t think it’s much to worry about.

Yeah I can say I have also seen what @M_V is describing.
I have filled similar dents and sanded back before, but also left some without.
