However as you did say you'd finished this on a lathe, I'd have included some steps in the mould and faced them on the lathe also, to mould-in accurate shoulders in the carbon fibre tube for alignment purposes. And sure they'll probably need a skim in the lathe afterwards to make sure they're true to 0.01mm.

The alignment shoulders will be on the aluminium rings that get bonded to the ends of the tube. The ends of the tube will be accurately machined before bonding.
