I know many here will disagree with me, but I'm tired of Grant's constant carbon bashing. What he doesn't mention is that carbon frames can be repaired. Craig Calfee repairs carbon fiber frames and does a fantastic job. Want proof? Check out this damaged carbon frame: http://pardo.net/bike/pic/fail-016/BrokenCalfee.jpg Believe it or not, Calfee *easily* repaired this frame for something like $250. That was a few years ago, so it may be double that now. Still, not unreasonably priced. Further, Calfee has repaired thousands of carbon frames not his own including, but not limited to: Abici Orbea Cervelo Hed Zipp Trek Scott Specialized Look Ridley Kuota Pinarello Giant Colnago Bianchi Wilier Fuji Corima Blue Reynolds De Rosa Eddy Merckx Lemond Litespeed Time Javelin Cinelli Vellum Koga Miyata Marin Ibis Isaac Guru Raleigh Klein Campagnolo Cannondale Felt Jamis FSA Kestrel and more. So, Grant just needs to stop the bashing, which doesn't make sense since his custom Rivs sell like hotcakes and its my understanding that he has like a 2 year+ wait list. His carbon bashing makes him almost sound desperate...Good Luck! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
