How do you make tubular bicycle frame from carbon fiber?
Carbon fiber sheets are actually laid into a mold that molds the outside shape of the carbon fiber. Inside, an inflatible bladder maintains the inside tubular shape. One the carbon fiber is placed inside a "pressure cooker" (under pressure and under high heat), the carbon fiber hardens into it's tubular shape.
