Undoubtedly so. But if the advantage of "carbon" bikes can be extolled
that a carbon-carbon frame must have twice the bragging rights :-)
I don't think it would be a good idea to brag about having a bicycle
made from the same stuff that caused the Challenger space shuttle
disaster. The leading edges of the wings were made of carbon-carbon.
When the wings were hit by ice during takeoff, it punched some rather
large holes in the carbon-carbon.
Given the coefficient of friction between a 1.25" wide rubber tire
(32mm) and a wet road probably dragging the feet will work. :-)
Good point. Perhaps an anchor and rope thrown overboard might be more
suitable for stopping the bicycle on a wet road?
