Mate! very, very sorry.
You could get it repaired, or retired to hang on the wall.

edit* Apologies mate, I just looked at the Flickr pics, I maybe wouldn't get that repaired, thats if you could.
What happened?

it's the scandium racelight grandfondo with carbon stays, lovely bike fits like a glove. they only make them in ti now

just noticed when cleaning it after todays run, there's a crack in the inside of both stays , the wheels perfectly true, no crashes, no major impacts that i can think of

i REALLY love that bike, sickner is i pushed the button on a new carbon frame on friday night to replace the ridley which i'm moving on as after a period of bike fit research i''ve now deemed 58cm as too big for me.

i've pinged their warranty a msg, fingers crossed but it was never registered

Nasty Graham. Good you noticed it while cleaning it though and not on a 40mph descent! :shock:

Can I assume that the seat stays are carbon and chain stays (the broken ones) are scandium? Doesn't look like carbon in the photae, but I have no idea about the bike model you have. :?

Re:

Have to agree, that looks like metal. In the crack and also the way that the crimp is done. No way they would build it that way out of carbon.
Gutted for you, but at least it didn't snap out on the road.

yeah, it's aluminum chainstays, carbon seat stays, strange mix, but comfy... or was comfy
