Hello all, I’ve put a dent in my bank holiday weekend by chipping the top tube of my carbon frame.
Does anyone have any first hand experience of frame repairers they would recommend?

I am in Herefordshire, so Bristol Bicycle Restorations are not too far away. Has anyone here used their repair service?

Thanks in advance.

Top tube chip

This thread from a year ago might prove useful?

https://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/carbon-frame-repair-experiences/

I came on here to reply with a recommendation for Rob Hayles (Re-Carb) and in searching online for that, I found the old thread where he gets a mention.

It's just a sticker. Don't worry.

Another vote (from the other thread) for carbon wasp, they’ve repaired a frame for me, and built me a carbon crank from scratch

<p style="text-align: left;">I had my carbon road bike repaired at Carbon Bike Repair in Leatherhead. I'm lucky as it's only 15 minutes from me but they were really good. I doubly lucky as the insurance company paid as it can be quite pricey. Before and after pics:</p>
