Hello everyone! Yesterday finally I received my 12 speed C Line and I love it!
I don't know how I managed it but unfortunately I have already put a war sign to it.. 😐😐😐
Yesterday when I came home from work, I removed the chain, degreased it, waxed the chain reput it – I had a difficult tike putting it back on, it was difficult to put the chain between the jockey wheel and the sprocket.. – at least it was harder than my other bikes.
I also put the first treatment of the Brooks saddle with the conditioner that comes with it. And I was tired but I had to do it to ride the bike today, so yeah.. no matter how careful I tried to be, I put a war sign on it! I hope that it isn't serious on that spot, but it is tiny tiny the damage.
I like how it looks and rides!
Cheers!
EDIT: I actually checked the photos that I did on my first ride after going out of the shop – I had only once folded and unfolded it before them to remember how to do it and I see that sign on those photos too – the other photos that I shared in this post. Then I assume that I took the bike like this from the shop. I didn't check or notice it there. So yeah.. at least I know that I didn't cause it! 🙂

Are you sure that wasn’t already there? The metal where the paint is chipped is already rusted. It’s only cosmetic damage, but I don’t think it would rust that quickly (less than 24 hours) if you chipped the paint yesterday.
Chips are inevitable I’m afraid OP I’ve got my Brompton fully wrapped but there’s still a few locations that have become chipped unfortunately nothing you can do about it.
