replacement frames

I dont know how to post links but if you do a search on service honda hammond it should be first on the list.
And since ATK took bought Cannondales inventory, parts should be redily available for years to come. They have had everything Ive ever ordered but I havenot needed much in the last 2 years except for sprockets and oil filters.

They said they didnt know if they could fix it if they could it would be expensive and if they did it would not be the same again. They said they could get him a new frame for 1600 dollars. Is this an acurate price? High/ low average? Also He was wondering if there were any companies that he could order a frame from aftermarket. If he had replace the frame anyway why not get something better. Any suggestions?

a new frame for a pred is only 600$. from a dealer

Its the rules of supply and demand and mass production.
Its why I bought a welder ,tubing bender ,lathe and design ,build my own parts. I dont know if any of you play paintball but when the semi auto guns came out years ago they could demand thousands of dollars for them. Now that there are many more producers out there you can buy semi auto guns for less than $100.
