Does any one know were I cant get a cracked carbon frame repaired?...its been caused by over tightening the front derailleur bracket on the seat tube
Its quite small and I'd rather get it sorted before it gets any bigger.

thx

    Hi,

    I am not aware of anyone who can repair carbon tubes. If there is then I could imagine it being very expensive. I would also take the bike to a reputable LBS, a crack on the seat tube could be dangerous, carbon is very strong but when it goes it does so with a bang. Now that there is a stress concentrator you are more likely to get a failure.
