I have a paint chip on the fork of my Trek 5200. The frame is only five months old - purchased in September of last year and ridden for about a month before being stored for the winter. Anyway, I actually found the chip which is in one piece. Can this be glued back on the carbon fiber with an epoxy? If so, any suggestions on where to get the glue?

Don´t touch it . Ask Trek for advice , could be only cosmetic but don´t risk it get it checked out by them .
maybe you could remove all the paint and have a cool carbon look?
