fist wrote: more carbon strips and some resin. AFAIK you need to bake carbon fibers in an oven. That makes it impractical for DIY. Glass fiber is easy to use in a garage environment in comparison. Didn't somebody enforce his CF base with a metal plate (as a precaution). I think I remember reading that in some other thread. That's too late now but for your next seat. -- petri ------------------------------------------------------------------------ petri's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15522 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63590 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

Fixing a cracked carbon fiber seat base?
But I have never tried carbon. I believe it is not all that difficult, possible to do at home. Here is a web site that has a lot of info, and can sell you carbon cloths and resins. If it is like fiberglassing, it is as simple as sanding, soaking the right cloth with the right resins, and having it in the right shape when it hardens. Good luck ! We all want to see your new carbon frame ! -- feel the light ------------------------------------------------------------------------ feel the light's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14551 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63590 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com
