So, In the middle of the summer I built up my brand new SuperSix frame, took it out for a test ride, caught my pants on the bottle cage and ripped the bosses out of the frame. $500 and 2 months later I got it back from Calfee. Last night I caught my pant leg again on the bottle cage of my CAAD9. Ripped the bottle cage in half. Now I realize I should stop catching my pant leg, but If I do, Is it too much to ask that the frame be able to take it?

haha, I don't mean to be smiling Brian, but you have some strong legs and some strong pants. I do agree that the frame should be able to hold, unless it's unfinished or damaged carbon.

The legendary Bob Roll had the same issue, and as one would expect, he came up with a brilliant solution:

LOL, that's awesome, I would try it, but I'll be sore for a long time, and not from legs.
