Yep, I did read back in 2008 that the bigger Biscaya's were having issues with Poles splitting etc.
And the don't come much bigger than the Biscaya 500.
You could be in luck if you can get in contact with Cabanon, as the Poles for the Awaya range are the same diameter as the Biscaya Poles at 28mm difference being as you have pointed out is that the wall thickness on your Poles is 1mm the Awaya Poles are 1.5mm.
Firstly try writing to Cabanon at Dunkerque, they only seem to respond to Snail Mail, but you could try email as well.
Allow around 4 months for a response, if after that you have got no where, pay a visit to TVS at Bolton they are a Cabanon service agent, David the owner there put me in contact with the Cabanon UK rep, my problem was then soon resolved by the Cabanon factory in Dunkerque.
One of the reason we went for the Biscaya 370 Cotton, was that the 23mm Steel Poles are 2mm Wall thickness, and I have to say after 7 years use they are all still in fine fettle, but the Pole Bag weighs about 25kg!
Good luck in your quest, well worth the effort for what is a fine Tent, let us know how you get on.
