Can carbon frames go softer?
Probably my imagination but I`m beginning to think that the BB area of my carbon road bike isn`t as stiff as it was, about 2 years and 7000miles of use. Seem to get more chainring rub on extremes of ratios under pressure. SO does carbon get `softer` and more pliant with use or am I just imaging things? Maybe being over cautious after the BB failure last year of my Ti bike frame
