Hi Guys,
I have a 2015 Cervelo R2 and I take very good care of it, all servicing done at my local bike shop where I bought it from (Cervelo dealer).
On the recent pick up of my latest tune up for spring, they informed me of a crack/paint chip around the lower chain stay on my frame. I had no idea how it happened, the only thing I could have thought of was my bike on the trainer for Zwift. But I never go hard or stand up, more to just spin for exercise during the winter.
Anyone else out there experiencing this crack/chip with their R2 frame? I talked to another fellow on a local buy/sell, he told me his R2 suffered the exact same problem when I sent him the pictures below, but his crack/chip area was closer to the middle of the chain stay and ended up getting a warranty frame, an R3.

What would you suggest I do? Ask my shop to file a warranty claim with Cervelo? If this is a widespread issue, then I really hope to get this addressed.
Your thoughts are kindly appreciated. Thanks.
