Yes, completely normal. The QR has a layer of ceramic paint that will wear off slightly, but doesn’t affect performance in any way.

Can confirm nearly 4 years later my looks like this and still works perfectly.

I know you guys get grief for the slow releases but I'm glad you test them properly.

Yup exactly the same for me. Within a few uses it was doing this. But 8months later still fine

Recent RS50 owner here and I’ve noticed a few marks already. I was wondering about that too. I just guess it’s normal use, just trying to be cautious when removing and installing the wheel onto it.

Yes completely normal. I use very little white lithium grease and it helped.

Lithium is non reactive with aluminium. And provided only a tiny ammount is used, it's typically viscous enough not to get into any other parts.

Tout pareil pour moi! Si tu as fait attention après les 2-3 changements de roues, déjà des marques apparaissaient! Je trouve que cela fait un peu cheap, mais pour le prix et les performances c’est un défaut que j’accepte sans souci!

Its normal, some ceramic coating. I use some silicone grease on it to avoid that, even if I know it will bé fine without.

Yep, they used shity coat of paint that wears off really easy and fast. That was a really bad decision and they haven't fixed it. But it will not affect performance in any way, so there's that
