New forum category: Carbon fiber bikes …???..
I’m not sure where to post discussions about carbon fiber bikes… The Classic and Vintage group seems to be pretty tight about keeping it mostly *steel is real*... Road Cycling is very broad and wide… The other groups are very specific…
Is there room here for a new Carbon Fiber specific discussion group…??…. Edit: Thanks for all the helpful comments… I decided to post on the Bicycle Mechanics group… Link >>> Carbon Frame Repair |
If you have a specific question, non-mechanical, this is a good place to start.

This is a bit like suggesting a sub-forum about internal combustion cars in an automobile forum.

My thought is a group where the focus is primarily Carbon Fiber frames, and bikes built with carbon fiber… We have many groups focused on very specific forms of cycling, and carbon fiber bikes are very specific too… I’m just wondering on their place here…???… |
Perfect topic to kick off new year. I am out of :popcorn...but I well stocked with :beer:.

I think we need two new topic pages .... "Hating on CF Bikes" and Rational Thoughts About CF Bikes".

Still wondering what question OP has about his bike. :foo:
|
Creating a CF forum without ever considering an aluminum forum is discrimination. And discrimination is wrong.

Of course it does… |
A "non traditional diamond frame" sub sections might gain more resin support.

Nope, and while we're at it, the Bycicle Mechanics forum should be just Mechanics...

I think a sub-forum for newbs would be worthwhile.
|
If power source is a deciding factor then we need sub-forums for bikes bikes ridden by riders with different watts/kg .... and a separate sub-sub-forum for "serious" riders.

Is there room here for a new Carbon Fiber specific discussion group…??…. This forum is a lot of fun though and having been in the sport since the 70’s myself I do connect with the items discussed. Good luck though and looking forward to the discussion. |
