I am based in the New York tri-state and have a 2010 Cervelo S3. I was out on a ride toda, my chain snapped, flung around my front derailleur, and ripped out the riveted front derailleur mount. I have some questions and am looking for suggestions as well. I've attached a picture of the damage.
Thanks so much,
Eric
- Could this be under warranty? It seems a bit crazy that such a trivial part of the bike is riveted in place -- and thus makes the bike unrideable if it break
- Outside of the ripped out rivet holes, the carbon looks to be in good shape. do you think this would be something I could fix myself? I'm comfortable with all bike repairs, and this is well within my scope.
- Finally, if I had to send this out for carbon repair, or drop it off, does anyone have anyone they've successfully used in the past. This would be a smaller repair, so I would prefer to not pay for shipping if it could be avoided.
Thanks so much,
Eric
