Hi,

Apologies if this has been covered, a search didn't throw anything up.

Can anyone recommend a product to bond carbon fibre tubes into aluminium lugs as part of repairing a bicycle frame of the same construction- so i would assume a structural adhesive is needed. Obviously high strength is needed, and presumably a very small amount of flex? maybe one of the permabonds (et515?)- not sure which one? I am also concerned about corrosion of the aluminium- is this a necessary worry, and are there any mitigations?

Supplementary question- i'd like to sand back refinish the carbon fibre- would the epoxy coating resin do the trick? does it require lacquering afterwards for a lovely shiny finish?

Thanks for any help!
