Looking to build a bombproof bikepacking rig for a trip to South America in a year or two. Found this frame for a good price but it has a small ding on the downtube. Is it superficial or…?
Also on the edge about the size, I fit surly’s size L and XL (6’2”/ 188cm). XL is appealing because of the larger triangle but with L transportation and flying might be easier. What do you guys think?

I personally would ride it, my 91 stumpy has a massive dent in the downtube

0 problem there. If you like it and it fits there’s no risk at all.
