This is likely able to be repaired but do not ride this until that’s done.

Nah the seat post tube isn’t important 😂

Let me guess, your seat post reaches right about there ?

Possibly fixable, definitely not safe to ride in its current state. The manufacturer will determine if that area is repairable or not—I honestly can’t say. It seems like a high stress area of the frame.

Looks like some type of stress fracture. Frame is done.

What do you think!?

I hope you’re hungry, cause that frame is Toast.

No reason to worry about it, it is dead.
But you can worry about how to get a replacement.

You do not need to worry but you do need to take action.

Yes, you should. I’m afraid it’s time for it to go.

Is this F/All Road model?
Edit: what year?

You don’t need to worry provided you don’t need to ride it. It’s history.

There are carbon repair shops in every major town. Find your nearest and have it fixed

Yes it needs to be repaired because it will break if you sit on it
If it’s this frame it’s indeed not inserted very far, although the height setting seems fairly limited otherwise if you look at the seat tube narrowing.
Don’t see any guidelines in the assembly instructions, and only maximum seat post insertion in the geometry chart..

Yes?
Yes! Does the frame have a warranty?

Ironically “FARA” means danger in Swedish.

Yeah dude. Definitely worry. I feel like you already knew this though.
No need to worry at all because you can be fully confident that this frame needs to be taken to a shop and warrantied
Just make it your Zwift bike
