It may be a good idea to open your cif file in a text
editor and check that the residue type is specified
correctly
-- in this case, it should be "L-peptide"
Here's a few lines for the alanine cif file as an example.
Note where it says "L-peptide" -- I could be wrong but I
believe this enables phenix to recognize that it should be
linked (form bonds) with adjacent amino acid residues.
Sometimes Elbow will create a cif file that says "Ligand"
in this field, which may be related to the "missing bond"
that
you observe.

Example Alanine cif file:

It should link automatically if the criteria as listed in the previous post are followed. You can check it in the .geo file. I'm happy to take a look at it if you send me the model or even just the three residues involved on list.

Hi We are trying to refine a protein structure with a (covalently) modified residue. The colosest discussion to our problem is:
http://www.phenix-online.org/pipermail/phenixbb/2010-August/015629.html
We ran:
phenix.elbow --residue SSC ourmodel.pdb
And read the due cif file at phenix refinement. The residue by itself is OK, but we were
not able to perform the peptide bond between C and N. How to complete the .cif file such that it has due restraints for the peptide bond with this modified residue?
