there’s a large market for carbon fiber bicycles. I agree that it’s fairly silly, most sports goods are, you get so much more for technique then equipment, but you can say the same thing about the automotive industry, or phones. my friends have laid up carbon fiber bikes by hand

Market for carbon fiber bicycles is for bikes that offer higher performance than the alternative and these are worse than an ordinary carbon fiber bike frame. The market for Arevo's bike is a handful of VCs. Large market doesn't equal startup opportunity. Marginal value needed.
