YT wrote me back again after checking with the German offices and said it’s from the tires rubbing the frame during shipping. They said it’s strictly cosmetic don’t worry about it.
Hopefully it is just cosmetic I just don’t see how a shoe could cross the crank arm in the front part of a pedal stroke. Also why is it only on the right side. Either way I’m sure the bike will get scratched up as I ride it I just don’t want it to be a sign something is wrong with the bike.
To be fair the rest of the bike has been awesome. So smooth with the coil shock. My father in law has the 29er pro in the black color and we could not see the marks on his frame.
rode the new shred for the first couple of times and noticed this spot above the motor. Texted my buddy who also has one and has an identical spot. Could a wire get hot enough to burn through the carbon? It’s too high up to be foot rub and his bike has the spot in a almost identical pattern.
