I loved this project so much that I started work on another bike and also decided to tie my other interests into the process so I started a dedicated channel for Outdoor Lifestyle! 🌟MORE BIKE BUILDS and REPAIRS + OUTDOOR LIFESTYLE🌟
A DIY fix on a carbon frame - with a semi pro finish!
BRIEF: Get myself a competitive bike for a bargain through -
Sourcing a cheap damaged frame, using a carbon fibre sheet and epoxy adhesive kit, spray painting, sourcing components, build it.
I was happy to do this as it is my OWN bike and wasn't serious structural damage after I inspected it. Compression fracture during travel (airport).
It is possible to follow this technique for various types of damage on various parts of the bike.
*I would recommend getting the bike checked by a professional before attempting a fix. Some fixes require both external and internal repair that can only be done by a competent setup.*
I have fixed a couple more bikes since this and have not had further issues on the repairs.
I won't put the exact links up as I'm not sponsored, but.....
- Carbon sheets fix kit - eBay around £12
- Spray paints (ProMatic) - White Primer, Matt Black, Satin Black around £6-7

Enjoy, and thank you so much for watching!
