Not that I have a carbon frame, not that I can afford one. Just a question...
Can you just (somehow) glue the shell back on?

For most any time that things start coming unbonded from a carbon frame, you'll probably need to send the bike back to the company to get it repaired. Not something that most people can do in their garage

It happened to me. 04 Specialized Roubaix Pro bb shell detached and I contacted the bike shop I bought the frame from. No questions thery just said "send it back to us, have a look at the latest version on the Specialized site and pick a colour you'd prefer." I look on the site an didn't care much for the current livery so I asked how much to up grade to an S-Works. "we'll ask Specialized" they said. An hour later the email me. "Spec say they'll give you the S-Works at no extra"
