Responding to a quick report of trouble following the pix link, here 'tis directly:

Hope that's better.

By the way, no damage other than a pair of little chips when I visited. No ripples on the top tube, down tube or head tube. Unlikely to have taken more damage in the meantime -- it's not the owner's size and he wasn't letting me ride (and I'm a sweet-talker, let me tell ya).
