Got bored and decided to attempt to repair a cracked Tarmac frame that’s been hanging here for years. Sold this to a friend who got hit by a car on day 3 of ownership. Insurance bought him a new one.
Figured if this stays together it will make the perfect trainer bike.
Forgot a before picture, but this is after I just started sanding it down.
Bought a diy carbon repair kit on eBay for $24.
Mixed the ingredients and did 2 wraps of carbon.
Wrapped in electrical tape and let it sit over night.
Then sanded a bunch. Could have done better on the sanding, but this was really just a test.
Hopefully this doesn't blow apart the first time I stand on the trainer.
Surprisingly fun and easy to do.
