The LBS tells me that this frame is ruined and that I shouldnt be riding it anymore. They suggest that I do the trade in program that cannondale offers which would be $850 canadian. Take a look for yourself and tell me what you think!

Thx Shawn

I wouldn't ride that frame if you paid me!

It's good for slow rides around the block with the family, but I wouldn't hammer on it or take it on anything too rough.

Better to have that dent on the chainstay than the seatstay, though.

About the only place that dent wouldn't bother me would be if it was in about the middle of the top tube... but on a chainstay, I wouldn't risk it.

Take the trade in... besides, what's $850 Canadian?? Isn't that like 12 dollars US? Sorry, just joshing our Northern Neighbors.

Not any more...I think it's like $1 to 1.20 or so now.
