Putting my new carbon bars on ready for the weekend, and as it's my first ever carbon component (yes sad I know) I'm doing everything by the book - torque wrench, carbon assembly paste slathered on everything - stem clamp, grips, brake lever clamps ...
Then I think - aren't the brake lever clamps supposed to be a bit loose so they'll rotate in a crash rather than break anything, whereas the point of carbon assembly paste is to stop things slipping when they're a bit loose?
So what's the right thing to do - carbon paste on the brake clamps or not?
