Weight Watchers - Forged Carbon Fiber

Got to agree with NickJ (#19) plus chopped strand does not have anywhere near the strength of cloth so you are reliant on the shear strength of the resin at the point of breakage which is not very high,
35-41 N/mm² / 5100– 6000 psi / 41.3 Mpa, so extra material in that area combined with better angle on the stand so that all the weight of the bike is held by compression of the stand shaft, have a look at the MotoCorse carbon stands they are really quite chunky in that pivot area
