Forum folk coming on a little strong... They mean well and their advice should be followed. All carbon parts come with a specified gauge of torque in which to tighten up too. If you ignore this it can end in cracking the carbon either when tightening or whilst riding.

What everyone's attempting to say is investing in a torque wrench will potentially save you a lot of future pain and expense.

Giant do a torque wrench for 50 quid... A tube of carbon paste is maybe 3-4 quid. Well worth the investment for full carbonz.

... Soon. Just start looking for the cracks! It's not about manning up, it's about saving money and doing it right!

not really, only roboto being a bit funny, but most of the guys like yourself have been giving sound advice rather than trying to mug me off,
I might not know much about carbon etc but before i even touch the frame i will be studying and researching a lot so if you guys can recommend any material to read it would be much appreciated...
