Paint chip

Frank Bullitt · 2012-06-07 11:12:20

I chipped the paint on the crossbar of my specialized rockhopper today on the way to work. I am a tad worried now about rust as I do use the bike all the time in all weather types, is there anything I can do or a treatment I can use to seal up the paint again? Or do I need to worry about rust at all?

Unless it's a really old model it's an aluminium frame, so it won't rust.
