An unpainted section of carbon bodywork, might actually shed a bit of weight

By far the most important safety upgrade I've seen in months.

I heard CF wheel nuts are coming soon to reduce weight from a vendor here soon!

I had a 400 dollar kayak paddle in my hand today and it was NICE! Lot more work than some CF pieces I see here FS for way more. And it was made in the USA.
