    A scratchless bike is indication that its owner is incapable, or worse, unwilling to send it when necessary.

  2. I think canyon sells touch up paint.

    My bike has too many scratches now from bikepacking bags that i don’t mind

    Put some electrical tape under the straps next time to avoid the scratches

  3. I wouldn’t worry about it. If you plan to bikepack more than it is definitely worth investing in helicopter tape. Don’t go for “frame tape” as it’s just a marked up version of the exact same thing. Also called protective film or surface protection tape. You don’t need the actual aerospace grade stuff but that’s just want it is called. It’s clear and will mitigate the look of these scratches but will prevent further damage in the future.

    I put it anywhere I may get rubbing on the frame. If it annoys you, you can get touchup paint to repair this but I imagine the matte coating it may not blend seamlessly and if you’re putting friction tape over it as well as bags then who cares.

  4. Gar nicht. Lass es einfach.

    Mach Rahmenschutzfolie drauf damit sich das beim nächsten Mal nicht weiter runterrubbelt.

  5. That’s why I added protective helicopter tape when I went bikepacking but I didn’t add it fully around the bike so it still scratched outside the straps. Anyways it gives the bike some character, I wouldn’t worry about it
