My Zed team chainstay gor scratched yesterday. Does anyone know how can I patch the scratch? The color is silver and I can see the aluminum from the scratched surface. Thanks

Touch up paint? You can get a wide variety of colors in small bottles from most hobby shops. Piece of cake. Besides, chain stays are SUPPOSED to be scratched! (If you don't like that, then put a chainstay guard on. Lizard skins makes a good one, or you can make your own with part of an old inner tube or something).

I've never been able to figure out the big deal w/ scratches on mountain bike...unless it's brand new yesterday or something.
You better invest in Lizard Skins protectors and/or their carbon fiber patches.

The scratch is not on the drive side so I want to cover it. I tried some touch up paint and it's still ugly so I put a sticker. It looks nicer.
