Hi, two pronged thread. Found a minor defect in my carbon frame that I need to fill. Non-catastrophic but needs attention. Anyone know of a lbs that could do this? If not anyone carbon resined their own frame and if so, how easy (or not) was it?
Mildly more fun, this means I can accelerate my plans to buy a new carbon frame by 6 months. I really like the Canyon ultimate SLX 9.0 but just don't want to wait until July (possibly) for delivery. Ritte have caught my eye too, but seem to be difficult to find.
Can anyone suggest a non-high street brand worth investigating. Ideally £1000, but for the right bike up to £2000 like the Canyon.
I'm generally a standard size so miss out on sale items (like Ritte)

What about Orro, they seem well regarded and about the right price range. www.orrobikes.com/bikes/roadAlso, rose have a similar sales model to Canyon. A mate has just bought one of their bikes and it's very nice.

Cheers David. I just need the frameset. Rose only have end of line stuff (small and xl) and seems Orro only do full bikes. Shame as I really like them too.

Aprire are offering a discount to DP members on their framesets.

Just going by their website Le Bicycle in West Wickham seems to stock Ritte?
