Do carbon bikes have a shelf life?

[kacie tri-ing]

I ended up buying the 2004 carbon tri bike I was drooling over. The previous owner was the original owner and the bike was very well cared for. I'm loving it so far but it's taking some time to get used to the new gearing: double and bar end shifters.

I didn't realize that you really JUST bought that bike! Have you posted pictures??

Edit: I just found them! SO cute! Did you keep that cool bartape??
