All carbon bikes.

[Randy Butternubs]

The Liberty ships, a type of WW2 cargo ship, had a slight issue with suddenly snapping in half in cold North Atlantic waters. This was due to the cold reducing the ductility of the steel, allowing cracks to form.

Clearly they should have made them out of carbon fibre.

Don’t they make plane bits from carbon? Can get nippier at 37000 feet than your shed I reckon

Air rushing past tends to warm stuff up, though. Apparently, you could fry eggs on Concorde's wings.

That's got to be at yolk surely?

My carbon bike has a room all to itself in our flat. When we move this weekend, it's getting a prominent position on the wall. I'm too paranoid to leave it in the garage with the other bikes.

 

[Globalti]

This reminds me, I ought to bring my best bike in from the unheated garage and bed it down in the dining room, which we seldom use. Naturally I will go in from time to time to fondle it and reassure it that spring isn't far away.

 

[Drago]

I keep my bikes in the cold shed and feed them only watery gruel. I also beat them and mistreat them.

 

[Alan O]

I’d bring it inside. It could go next to you under the duvet...

That's very dangerous advice! If it gets too warm under the duvet, here's what can happen...

Chains slack .

How do you stop the egg falling off at Mach 2?

They used special aero eggs with truncated-airfoil yolks.

You wedge it in place using the bacon.

I've started sleeping with my aluminium framed bike and massaging the agricultural welds with arnica oil.
I believe carbon is even more needy.
My divorce is going well though.

...which were aluminium IIRC. Concorde did actually stretch in flight due to air friction though. A gap opened up between a bulkhead and the flight engineers workstation at Mach 2.

My wife would divorce me if the spare room was used for the bike!

Surely the definition of 'spare' is that isn't being used, so why not put a bike in it!

IF. IF the op is serious... FFS! Get a grip.
