A friend's bike. Don't know the complete story but it appears airline related.

Well, on the bright side, the airline won't be able to argue that it's just cosmetic damage...

Impressive. Was the bike used as landing gear?

DIY carbon couplers - now there's an idea. With enough Bondo anything can look good.

The down tube break looks real, the seat tube and top tube break almost look to clean to be real. Took some force to manage that damage.

Keep us posted on the outcome of your friend's claim.

I'll bet the airline denies the claim and says the bike was not packaged properly.
