  1. Galvanic corrosion is not limited to carbon on aluminum. It will happen when any dissimilar metals are in contact with each other. 6061 and 7075 could react.
  2. Salt and some detergents may cause corrosion. But if you haven't used anything then tough to explain. Maybe wait for the manufacturer could well be a factory fault and you score a new frame.
  3. The white powdery stuff in the pic is defiantly corrosion. Same as the red color that you would get from steel when rust starts.
  4. What started as a small paint chip could have allowed moisture to get under the paint and it started corrosion. Hi pressure wash can force water and detergent under the paint and if not rinsed off can react with the aluminum.
  5. Looks like galvanic corrosion . If it is a carbon frame or seat post then it could be a reaction between the carbon and aluminum. Carbon assembly paste would have limited the effects of the reaction.
  6. Forum posts are not a requirement for posting in the Classifieds. Just take extra care and do your homework. Someone with zero forum posts can have 100 positive 5stars.

  8. Did you report to @Matt.
  9. The Thule Proride 591 and 598 should fit on the Holdfast bars. The Thule wingbar should also fit on the Holdfast footpack.
