Carbon Bike Repair - is it worth it?

If that were my bike, I’d be tempted to DIY repair it.

A shop will grind it out, fill the hole with some filler and finish with a carbon fiber cloth patch. It’s not rocket science especially in a really thick area like that. Like I said, you could probably ride it as-is for another 20 years without a problem.

Go watch 5 carbon fiber repair videos on YT and you’ll get a sense of how these repairs are done.
