At least that's what I call bikes of carbon-fiber construction...
We just got our first one donated due to irreparable frame damage. Sure, we pull the parts from it, but the frame will have to go to landfill. I am wary of the future of bike repair / recycling as c-f becomes more common. Hopefully they'll find ways to recycle this stuff, because I don't know if there'll ever be a safe way of checking these frames for hidden damage.
