itouchdennis on July 21, 2025 1:20 pm I was riding my nomad today and heard a loud noise, immediately stand off the bike and seen this in my rear triangle and on the frame itself. The frame looks like a paint chip, but on the rear thing, I see some scratched carbon looking at me… am I cooked?

Looks like a crack from here. If true, sorry. 😞
