Hello all!
Last summer, my bike fell and got a few minor scratches, the one in the pic included. It’s in the top tube of the frame.
I forgot to send it into servicing over the winter, and how that spring is here, I of course want to keep it in order to be able to cylce outside.
Do you think the carbon is damaged, or just the lack/paint? I think it’s the latter.

In the meanwhile, I put a sticker over it to avoid weather exposure.
Thanks for any valuable input 🙂

please take it to a carbon repair shop for an opinion and/or canyon. it looks like a sharp blow to a concentrated spot. another mod has replied to your PM. as mentioned elsewhere I’m a laissez-faire mod i don’t care if this particular post is locked our not, but others may have a different opinion. let us know what the professional opinion is. good luck.
if i may suggest anything is to avoid leaning the bike on the top tube, instead, lean it on the tyre, pedal, handlebar or saddle.
