Does anyone have any recommendations for a good carbon repair specialist in the Colorado area?

I got one quote from someone local that said it was not repairable and then another shop in NY that said they could do it - not sure whether I want to ship my bike or whether it's just time for a new frame. The manufacturer could not do a full crash warranty but did offer a discount for a new frame.

https://www.brokencarbon.com/ have been around for a long time and built a name that means I've heard of them in another country.

Broken Carbon is the way to go. Former aerospace guys, they know what they are doing with a composite layup. They also accept the bike as is, you don't have to tear it down to just a frame. I brought them a bike last year and couldn't be happier.

I used Broken Carbon 9 years ago and it was an okay experience but I would rather not use them. I question their quality now that Brady Kappius has left the Boulder location. The current owner went on a dating reality tv show to promote the company last year and some sketchy shit has come out since.

Not in Colorado, but Ruckus Composites fixed my bike when many other companies said it couldn't be repaired.

If you get in a pinch, Calfee Designs could do it. They are known all over the country for their carbon repair. A friend snapped his Cervelo P2 & they fixed it like it never happened...repainted it, etc. Looked like new.
