Time for some tough love.
What the hell are you doing locking this up!? D-lock should go nowhere near a carbon bike. Many manufactures specify this in their warranty T&Cs as well. If you have forgotten this is a grand tour winning frameset. This is a Sunday best bike; NOT a commuter and especially not a bike that you lock in London. If you dont have a bike that you can commute on get the tube. If you want to make an all-in-one bike then look at Neil's Time Machine or DJ's Lynskey.
The material (carbon or alu) is not at blame here; it is you. Hell I wont even lock my chinese carbon bike let alone Sunday best!
Get a beater.
