00:00I can feel it even through the heat proof gloves.
00:02How do you make a carbon bike? This is the series where we reveal the secrets
00:06of producing world tour level bikes. Part 5, Curing.
00:11What happens when you take 304 pieces of perfectly aligned pre-prep carbon fibre?
00:16Pre-heat the mould to 100 degrees to get the still malleable carbon frame in,
00:21bake it at 150 degrees and then wait for 40 minutes.
00:24Well, you get this, a perfectly formed XLAB AD9. Our carbon road race bike is born.
00:31This still needs machining, sanding, painting, testing and assembling though,
00:36so make sure you follow us to see what other surprises we found at the XTS factory in China.
