    I have a crack in the rim of a Zipp wheel. Does anybody know of any place that does such repairs? Or would a reputable outfit even attempt such a repair job?

    Sh!t

    There's been a few threads in the cycling forum on carbon fibre repair.

    Two that were recommended
    http://www.roughstuff.ie/old/portal/
    Based in Palmerstown but according to facebook page has left the country

    http://www.fibre-lyte.co.uk/fl/fl_frame_repairs.html
    Based in uk so shipping costs to be added but come highly recommended.

    Tunney replied in one with a cracked 404 don't know if he ever got it fixed.

    I'd try and find out if you can get a crash replacement from zipp may be similar money and safer. I know they are a few years old but you must have very little milage on them.
