Re: What did you buy yourself today (Photo thread)...
Had one of the first carbon bikes made - a Vitus Carbon-7 and put over 10,000 miles on it in Hawaii - training rides, century rides, periodically commuting to work (18 mi. each way), time trials, the Ride to the Sun (Maui - from sea level to the top of Haleakala Crater), routine circle island rides (OAHU -112 miles), etc. It didn't even feel like there was a bike under the saddle.
Then moved to another state and put another 5K miles on it. No repairs were ever required. Just pulled the chain each week, dropped it in a quart jar filled with acetone (let it soak over night), wiped any schmutz off the bike and sprockets, and after remounting the chain, it was good to go.
You got a deal/steal...
When I learned they made fighter plane components out of carbon fiber, I was good to go...
You know, they make rifle barrels out of that stuff now too..- bamboomaster

Re: What did you buy yourself today (Photo thread)...
Back to our regularly scheduled program of firearms, btw I’m a big bike guy too guys. Have a full carbon specialized road bike. Anyways I bit the proverbial bullet and found a bnib Hudson H9 for way too cheap to not take a chance. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet and will update once I do.
Thanks,
Joe

Not all carbon fibre is the same and much has been learned over the decades how to make it stronger, lighter and more durable.
