As I worked on my current carbon wheels...

...I was simply struck by their weight - to say they are light is not saying much. At the same time they are very, very robust. At first I handled them carefully, you know, expecting a chip here and there... but soon I realized they were tough, so I became sure of myself scraping off the old glue.

BTW, there is a great video on Tube on how the carbon frames are made... it is the French Look brand, and the frames are fabricated in Tunisia.

I was shocked to know their frame has 405 carefully shaped pieces of carbon sheets all glued together.
