early 'monocoque' carbon construction


The seat cluster from a friend's popular early 'monocoque' cfrp big brand name flagship frame (tdf model) - including a his wet layup repair over a large unbonded joint at the seatstay wishbone. He did a fine job with compaction and estimation of what was necessary, given how many miles went on the bike afterwards! This frame was retired still in working order (with the repair) after a few years of salty training.
