Chip in carbon frame. Do I need to get professional repair?
#1
I had a minor collision with another cyclist. The bottom of the fork of the other cyclist’s aluminum frame hit the rear left side of my carbon frame and chipped it. I tapped around the frame with a penny and the sound is the same. Do I need to get this repaired?
