Headshot Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 I am exploring my options after finding a crack on my S Works enduro frame at the seat tube BB junction. I found this repairer https://www.carbonbicyclerepairs.co.za/services online and have a rough quote. As anyone used their services? I believe Bogus Designs is another. Are there any others in the Cape Town Area? Any opinions and advice welcome.

Thomo Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 I've seen some really good work come out from CBR.Prices are fair with good turnaround times too.

They do the repairs and also the spray work.... quality work. Maybe you can also consider a new paint job whilst he is busy with the repairs
Headshot Posted October 25, 2017 Author Posted October 25, 2017 Not maybe a warrantee claim?It is potentially. Its an older 26er Enduro but only bought 2 years ago as a new frame set. The problem is that replacement frames may well not exist any more and the newer models, if I was lucky enough to get one, fit different rear axles and have a slightly shorter reach number, believe it or not. So getting a repair may well be the cheaper and quicker option to get back on the bike.
