Is that carbon? Because it kinda looks like carbon and carbon doesn’t really dent… it just cracks. Crack in carbon=no riding

If it’s aluminum or steel, totally.
If it’s carbon, I can’t tell you, maybe get it checked out.

If that’s the seat stay, my concern would be buckling. Those tubes are under compression. Think of what happens to a soda can when you step on it and then poke the side of it. Small dent but causes the whole thing to give.
