dave33 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 carbon doesnt show any signs of stress so you wont see a crack, they will just 'SNAP' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvil270183 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 carbon doesnt show any signs of stress so you wont see a crack, they will just 'SNAP' the bars are carbon wrapped around aluminium, you get cracks in the carbon first which slowly get worse, then only a matter of time before the alluminium goes i suppose. just like kyles. so you do get some warning with these bars in a way.
