Been splitting my bike down and found that in the top tube there is a lot of what seems like plastic bag. Tried to remove it but it is not coming out. Why is it there and does it/did it ever serve a purpose.

Is it a carbon frame? If so It maybe the balloon type thing they use for forming the tubes.

Maybe.

Is it a carbon frame?. When my carbon frame broke it had plastic inside. I think they blow into the bags to get the shape of the frame when they are making them in the factories.
