I'd mark the edges of it and monitor closely. If it is a crack, that's not the best place to ignore one. I continued riding my old mountain bike with a cracked seat tube, but I knew that even if it gave way the result wouldn't be catastrophic. Head tube joints are a different story.
Im gunna keep watching it. I showed it to one of my friends and he just said I can have his pre madone carbon fiber frame set. When I buy the new group set I’ll switch everything over if it is indeed a crack. The dent has been there but not it looks like a crack has indeed formed I know that wasn’t there before.

Velo, The only issues with strava i have seen lately is it adding a large amount of miles to the total distance traveled. I havnt had any issues myself.
