Aren't carbon fibre motorbike wheels available now.

I'm a full time cyclist (human powered) and I crashed a number of carbon wheels. They are very strong but when they do go, they shatter. In fact my mate had a 6 inch scar to prove it.

I trust my life with carbon wheels every time I point my bike down a mountain road (before an one asks, I regularly hit 50mph round corners) and if enough money was put into the development, I'd trust carbon car wheels too.
