..seems to be a delay in availability of replacement lower front frames in carbon .. anyone know if the ally ones can be used as a hybrid meanwhile? i.e any differences in thickness that matter?

..alternative might be to cut my own carbons.. but a hassle unless i can reassemble the fragments well enough and use a wheelie guide router bit to trim up against them (but being made to work long hours)..

Do they have the metal ones in stock at century UK? They would put you on and then do as a backup set for if the same thing happens again.
The metal frame might even double up as a guide for your router bit.

Exactly my thoughts but wanted to confirm that a chimera of carbon and metal would be same thicknesses and not twist alignment.

Why would it matter there is only four spacers going to the gas tank frame that it would affect.

All I can say is wow, they had a pred parts issues last year. It now seems to be a annual thing with them. What is the problem this time?
