Repair itself was $300. Paint was $125 disassembly was $125 since I didn't have the tools to take my bike apart.

And the repair looks great! (I think there's also a guy out in Spring Valley that does excellent carbon fiber repair work).

I didn't see him while searching around. I'm trying out the frame tomorrow at Bike the Bay.

Well, you could come on down to Eugene and do the opposite sort of ride. https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...d-Century-Plus
No fee, few riders, good climbs, no traffic, remote as all get-out (if you want to stay in touch, get a satellite phone), and no history, at least as far as the ride is concerned.
