Carbon frame repairs - advice needed
Hello all,
At the weekend I noticed a thin crack in my rear carbon seat stay... ouch 
Does anyone know of a good carbon repair shop in/around London?
I've found these guys up north http://www.carboncyclerepairs.co.uk but thought it may be worth finding a London based person so I can deliver.
Thanks in advance
Paul

£52 of sale price is so impressive, when you see some companies giving small %age of profits from sales to similar initiatives. Well done Galibier!

While I agree, not all bike fitters are equal. I found their know-how varies enormously—some are considerably more expert than others.

I have heard only good things about Carbon Cycle Repairs, so if you can get it to them I would.
Depending on how bad the crack is, and how much you want it to be aesthetically correct, it may be worth having a look to see if you have got any motorsport companies nearby as many of those have got extensive composites knowledge and may be interested in having a look at your frame.
