Thought about a new frame, but I need an old-fashioned 135x10QR rear end, as my MTB Powertap hub can't be converted to 142x12. And decent carbon 29er frames with QR back ends are thin on the ground. I think I'll just carry on riding this one until it breaks, and then build myself a steel frame from scratch.

Epic chain suck. The transmission was locking up solid up to 20 times a lap, and consistently making a variety of unpleasant noises in the inner ring. Needless to say, I just carried on racing, swearing a lot at my stupid bike.
