shade Posted November 8, 2019 Share https://carbonbikerepair.co.zayep ..these are the Pros in the business..manufacturer recommended ! from around R5k for a proper repair and respray with lifetime guarantee.. other locals doing it will charge around half of them.. +-R2500 https://carbonbikerepair.co.za will also use the exact same carbon layup thickness as manufacturer originally from the UK .. carbonbikerepair.co.uk Edited November 8, 2019 by shade Wannabe and Me rida my bicycle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shade Posted November 8, 2019 Share https://www.instagram.com/carbonbikerepairsa/?hl=en I did a search and read through most of the results on "carbon repair" on this forum, but I'm at a loss of where to take my bike for a COMPLETE repair quote after a bad fall.I'm particularly looking for a good place between alberton and the Jhb highway ring (so not benoni or fourways please). I've emailed Complete Cyclist in Randburg, as they deal with Specialized bikes and mine is an old Specialized, but 3 days later no response.Can anyone please advise a good place to go to between the areas mentioned above? I'm looking to get a quote for a carbon frame repair, broken spokes & wheel truing, some accessories needing repair and the bottom bracket/crank arm is making a clicking feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2fly Posted November 8, 2019 Share yep ..these are the Pros in the business..manufacturer recommended ! from around R5k for a proper repair and respray with lifetime guarantee.. other locals doing it will charge around half of them.. +-R2500 https://carbonbikerepair.co.za will also use the exact same carbon layup thickness as manufacturer originally from the UK .. carbonbikerepair.co.ukJust beware, as far as I know any repairs do come with a warranty but some manufacturers will invalidate the frame warranty even for paintwork so just make sure before you take the plunge.Its further south than Alberton and not massively professional in respect of carbon repairs but there isn't too much science involved when you delve into how its done...try Circus Cycling near Henly just off the R59...they can fix the rest of your bike and won't break the bank.

Dirkitech Posted November 8, 2019 Share I've already contacted carbonbikerepair and received a quote for repairs and partial respray, but they only quoted for the frame and that doesn't solve the expenses for the other parts broken, like the spokes etc. Ideally I'd like 1 quote for everything so as to make it simpler for insurance. Just beware, as far as I know any repairs do come with a warranty but some manufacturers will invalidate the frame warranty even for paintwork so just make sure before you take the plunge.Its further south than Alberton and not massively professional in respect of carbon repairs but there isn't too much science involved when you delve into how its done...try Circus Cycling near Henly just off the R59...they can fix the rest of your bike and won't break the bank.

Mett Posted July 12, 2020 Share Reviving this. Looking for a carbon repair in GAUTENG area (Jhb/pta), i have heard of CBR, but heard they can be pricey. Tried to get hold of bespoke carbon but not answer (perhaps closed these days?), can anyone recommend anyone “smaller” guy that does carbon repairs? Not looking for fancy art work, just want the frame repaired so I can ride the bike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like taking your car to a cheap panel beater, yes it might look OK but 2 weeks down the line the bumper falls off and you have a hell of a crash. Now imagine that on your bike.
