Hi folks, this is my first post here, about my first carbon bike 🙂
I just got my bike today and everything looks good, except for some discolouration in the frame that’s getting me a little upset (see the pictures). Is that normal/expected? What about that line in the middle of the frame? It’s only visible/noticeable on the black paint 🤔
Any Exceed CF owners here to confirm?

I can’t seem to edit the post, but thank you in advance for any response! 🙂
Looks to me like the carbon layup. Do you feel any ridges running a finger nail across?
That’s standard. It’s where the two halves of the mold are joined.
Most people like seeing the carbon layup and think it’s cool, including me. I guess you are not one of those people.
And here’s a small chip near the rear brake piston:
