Don't really know actually. This is becoming one of those 'the journey is better than the destination' kind of threads.

No, this "carbon wrap" is not good enough! It doesn't look like real CF, just a cheap pattern!

Apparently this stuff is lighter than air. They claim that it actually DECREASES the weight of the frame.

And, as we pointed out, makes the frame stiffer and more responsive. But more comfortable to ride.

My youngest daughter (4 y.o.) is now riding her pink Disney bike without training wheels since I covered her Barbie helmet and knee and elbow pads (don't ask) with this carbon fiber. It is miraculous.
