Anything available like an Airborne?

I have got a 2003 Airborne Thunderbolt which is my favourite bike. Over the weekend I discovered a frame problem which I think resulted from a Jaguar avoiding pavement interface earlier thsi year which might mean having to junk it. It is double butted aluminium 7005. If I can get a replacement frame at a sensible price then I will just swap all the components over. However, Airborne went bust some time ago and were taken over by Flyte, who in turn went bust. Airborne seem to have been revived, but don't do road frames anymore. Is there anything comparable to that sort of frame I should have a look at?

Try ebay, if you liked it that much you could always pick up a second hand one. A very nice looking one with full Ultegra recently went for £361.
