    Carbon Fiber road bike protection

    Hello AG friends

    So I just picked up my new road bike. The bike frame and fork are made of advanced composite carbon fiber.

    Is there any product specific to the abilities of adding a layer of protection to the carbon fiber. Carbon Fiber road bike protection-1485051352909-jpgCarbon Fiber road bike protection-1485051361187-jpgCarbon Fiber road bike protection-1485051364142-jpg

    Thank you in advance

    Coat it! Check out some of the ceramic/nano coating offerings and coat that bad boy...clean up/maintenance will be a breeze! (and it will make it look better as well)

    My thought was exactly that. I want to coat it to protect it and to make it easy cleanup. I never worked with anything before with a matte finish though. I will browse coatings for more ideas.
