had a nasty chain suck incident on the cervelo on good friday, chain dropped off the small ring and there isnt much clearance between the chainstay and the inner ring so the chain has attacked the chainstay. I think its just taken the paint off ani'm 99.9% sure there is no damage to the carbon. apologies its a cack photo but its thebest i can do wihtout taking the rings/crank off.

cheers, just concerned that the AWESOME WATTAGE i am putting through the chainstays may increase the chance of a structural fail..... wink

lots of people appear to use nail varnish to touch it up so it looks like a trip to the make up counter of house of fraser tomorrow!
