IS DIY CARBON REPAIR SAFE?
You would expect me to say no! but there are some cyclists who are quite capable of repairing a broken carbon section. There are a few points however that need to be considered:
– Industrial carbon epoxy is designed to work with carbon of which there are many variations.
– Knowing what is repairable and what not to try
– Layup thickness, if incorrect, can cause stresses on other parts of the frame
– Aesthetics
Think of it like repairing a wing on your aeroplane…you can hurt yourself so be careful and think before you try.
