Colmbus Max road frame for the UK- just been repaired.

This one will have a big carbon foot print,having already crossed the Atlantic twice-soon to cross it again to go to its owner. People send me stuff from pretty far away to be repaired. I don't generally do repairs but this frame was one that I had built and an exotic one at that so I really needed to do it . Even with the shipping it is still quite a bit less expensive than buying a new one and less wasteful, too. 
What happened was that the bike had a pretty big collision and the top and down tube were bent. Also, the fork was replaced just to be sure that the whole thing will be like new and safe to ride. I hope that he likes the bike as much after all the work. It was a trick to find the Max Tubes but I got lucky and found what I needed right here in town from another builder. It is all boxed up and ready to ship.
