Carbon fiber tubing supply
Hi i've got a lug set suitable for constructing a carbon fiber frame except i can't seem to find bicycle specific carbon fiber tubing. So i have two questions, does anyone know where i can get such a tubeset, or what type of carbon fiber tubing i should be looking for.

Dedacciai also makes CF tubes for bicycles.
Bringheli is a source for both Columbus and Dedacciai tubing in the U.S.

Any idea if either of these guys have a Canadian distributor?
no one seems to list plain carbon fiber tube sets are part of their catalog, perhaps it's special order only/.
Also i need to find smaller diameter tube for the seat/chain stays smaller than i think i will be able to buy bicycle specific retailers these days. so if i was to use "off the shelf" tubing what type of tensile strength should i be looking for?

Enve composites (formerly Edge composites) in Utah supplies carbon tubes to many of the carbon custom builders. (Crumpton, Parlee and others) I have bought from them and found them great to work with. They do not have "stock" tubing sets, but will be able to make what you need at reasonable cost.
