Noticed these today while adding air.

 

Harmless crazing in anodized coating? Impending catastrophic failure? Something in between? Opinions, please.

 

Bike has 80k miles.

 

Thanks!

My 2008 model has just started to show the same flaw in the finish. This is not anodizing, but likely powder coating or simply paint. I wouldn't attach a great significance to it just yet.

They look to me like lines of subsurface corrosion. Removing them might be a bit more involved than polishing.
