I've seen a quotation that essentially said you've chosen a lightweight frame rather than a rugged dent resistant frame and so check for cracks when servicing the bike. Although it's old the guy that had it before me just used it for pootling around the countryside. I'm only gonna be using it for racing, I'm sure it's up to the job

Well, yes, you shouldn't really clamp an aly or crabon performance frame anywhere but the seatpost or seat-tube, and only the later if it has a post in it and it extends to where you are clamping it :)
The optimo frames had a supplement that detailed the fatigue life, if raced, of about two racing seasons.
