I'll bet magnesium isn't a material many frame builders will know how to repair. The builder may be your only option. I wonder if a builder of real "mag" wheels might have a go.

You might want to contact the importer (Gita) for recommendations. Only US builder offering Mg frames is L. Zinn (not sure if he actually builds them or has someone else weld them up), so he may help you with repairs.

Not that it helps you any, but I saw in an article about Gita that they still had a stock of NOS Mg Dogmas. No word on price, but IMO those are a lot more desirable than the new ones.

Paketa builds with mag, so you may want to contact them. I-think- they are in Colorado. They will certainly know who works with mag.
