In today’s podcast, Richard L. Duquette discusses how to get compensation adequate for Carbon Fiber Bike Repair and Recovery.
Carbon Fiber
Carbon Fiber (CF) is very popular for bike frames. They are basically works of art. They are durable, strong and they look good.
CF has a tensile strength of 33 million pounds per square inch! This is a main reason they are so popular.
Some CF is reinforced with epoxy. These are layered with resin and cloth much like a surfboard.
Defective Parts
There is not as much oversight in overseas manufacturing of carbon fiber bikes. Therefore, your CF bike or CF bike parts might have been delivered defective. There are engineering tests that can be conducted to determine if the CF items were defective or were caused by the accident.
Problems With Carbon Fiber
If you suspect there is a problem with your CF bike or parts, take it into your bike shop. It might still be covered under warranty. Be aware of normal wear and tear and misuse clauses.
