I'm planning to build a bicycle frame using a mixture of Carbon tubes, fabric and aluminium.
I will need to bond the aluminium to the carbon but I'm not too sure how I would do that. And also I will need to join carbon tubes together.
I don't know what I will need to buy to do all this. I want to use a 12k weave as the surface layer. What else will I need?
