[Closed] Disposing of carbon frame

whats broken? give it to someone who wants to make a bamboo bike?

Its cracked all around the lower pivot bearing so no use to ride (also its only the front triangle).

I'll take it off your hands. The lads been looking for one to make a fancy tv bracket from!!!

Up-cycle it into a wall lamp.

Carbon cracked or witness cracks in the paint?

It got warranty replaced by Scott so Im presuming it was more than cracked paint. Where are you Jeff? Dont really want to post it tbh.

Not really a lot you can do other than up-cycling it.

It's going to be 50% or more carbon anyway so not that much plastic, probably not far off what you put into landfill each week if your council won't take black plastic either.

You could burn it down to carbon fibres and soot but it will give off plenty of nasties like burning most plastics so I would avoid.

After some Googling it seems Specialized did a recycling service through their dealers but Ive never heard of it so assuming it didnt live long.

i would love to up-cycle it if you are in the south?

If bookwyse isnt able to take it then its all yours walla. Im near Dartford.

I'm in Sittingbourne and work in Dartford. Pm a contact number and I'll arrange collecting it for him. He will be stoked , he's 13 and got an idea to make a mad tv swivel mount using a frame. I said id try and get him one and help him do it.

Send it back to Lapierre and they'll give you a new one.
