It's Back<->Forth. There's a bump, not quite a dent, more of a slight kink, on the left hand side of the seattube where the butting takes place. I think it's part design (the seattube is offset on the bottom bracket) and part manufacturing flaw, maybe lax tolerances, so I'm hoping I'm OK.

Hi All,
I bought a new aluminium frame and have noticed, after a little while of riding, that the weld between the bottom bracket and the down tube is not 100% aligned. The misalignment means the seattube has a slight curve, and I'm wondering if this bend might weaken the frame? I don't want it to fail on me, and don't want to be worrying about it failing on me! I have attached a couple of photos which show the extent of the misalignment. Any advice welcome.
Thanks,
Ian -
