The description says the frame is dent-free, but the DS chainstay appears to have a significant dent.

That is a beaut. I think the dent was put there at the factory for crank clearance.

This looks right. There is an identical one on the other side.

Just as an FYI, I’ve put on the listing collection only but if I’m more than happy to deliver for a retro bike member. I travel nationwide weekly so within the course of a month I will be able to drop off for free.
