Hi
Sadly in a race a few weeks back I had an excursion over the bars when the idiot in front touched wheels and came down in front of me, these things happen quick and I can only assume I landed on my frame as I cracked the top tube as well as doing some serious damage to my internals......all is on the mend and I have just got round to thinking about getting the frame fixed.
Gutted to say the least as had cracking form, 7th in National RR the day before and had just got accross the wining break, also wrecked my kit, shoes and left a load of skin on the floor, oh and the frame almost new, but hey we do it for the buzz.
I have seen a few sites of companies offering reparis but wondered if anyone has any feedback or advice on who best to use. Given the frame is black white a carbon collar in nude would seem just fine, not sure its worth spending the cash on matching the colour scheme as the frame now has little value.

Looks buggered to me, but what do I know?
In the past I've had some work done on a carbon/alu frame by Darren at:

I was satisfied, but my damage wasn't anywhere near as significant as yours.0
