I'm waiting too. I drove into a parking garage with the Dragonfly on the roof. My 1 year old was screaming in the backseat and I was dog tired, bike had been up there for about an hour and I was focusing on something else.
It ruined one of the fork tips so the fork will be replaced. It was an Alpha Q. Craig told me to get an Easton EC90 SLX. Fortunately this happened right before my birthday so I had some birthday money to set aside for the fork.
The top tube lost some paint. The seat lug took a hit from the rack crossbar after it fell when it was pryed off the rack (no lawyer's lips). So it has a ding. I don't know yet what they will need to do to fix it. It will need some paint, that is for sure. The left seatstay took a minor hit, looks like a scratch only. Hopefully it will just be a minor repair and some paint. If it gets into a seat-cluster re-mold, I'm into some serious money. Rats.
At least I'll get a lighter, slightly zippier fork out of the deal. But the big bummer is that the only bike I can borrow for the interium is a Fuji Fusion with 105. Comparatively, it rides like a pig. I'll just have to ride my tt bike and fixed gear more...
