Decent article in velonews about repairing carbon frames, which we always seem to be breaking!

 Calfee designs can repair almost any carbon fiber frame -- Look at some of the pictures on his website.  

I think they also warantee the repair for 10 years.

While we are on the subject of carbon...I bought a new carbon bottle cage to match my other one off Ebay, but didn't realize the new cage is matte and the old one is glossy. It's not a huge deal, but is there something I can buy at the hardware store to spray on the matte one and make it look glossy?

Kristen- just go to the hardware store and get a spray can of GLOSS polyurethane CLEAR paint and have at it.

From personal experience: Joe's Bicycle in California is an authorized Kestrel Carbon Fiber repair shop and did a great job on my Airfoil...
