"This is caused by the collision during the transportation of the shipping company.
Before we ship the frame, we will carefully check the frame is intact before sending the package."


I am surprised by this because I can't imagine that particular part of the frame being exposed/damaged during the transport even if it is across continents - unless the frame did NOT come wrapped inside a big box and was just sent with cushion wrapped around it ...without the box.
What I am saying is I could understand if some extreme corner of the frame was damaged like RD dropout or top of the headtube but brake bridge? I call BS. To me it was done 100% on their end before the thing even got wrapped.

Ofcourse, you can imagine trying to fit brake nut there and it is short, take the frame btw 800gr by the seat tube and carry in the room, my hand over that bridge and 2 small pieces in my hand.

now, what I did wrong and how, then I look, and I have a desk loupe large one, i see gluing and so on. That feeling.

Long time, i guess due to the circumstances but

I would buy one more if possible, drives like a charm, 950m climb and then 70.4km/h down like on rails.
