carbon pole repair?
Has anyone here tried using carbon fiber fabric and epoxy to repair a
carbon fiber pole? If yes, can you recommend the type of epoxy and the fiber fabric? I broke 2 poles within the last 2 weeks rollerskiing , by getting the tip of a pole stuck in a gap between concrete slabs at a bike path bridge. One of the poles was an Exel Black Feather, so I am mildly annoyed. I was thinking to get a thin aluminum tube from McMaster and using aluminum putty to glue the pieces together. May be carbon fiber would be a more elegant way, but I have no experience with carbon fiber. Don't want to spend $300 on a new pair of poles w/o giving repair a try. |
