I've tried to fix carbon landing gear before using epoxy but they always snapped off, but would get me though one landing or so (better to crash land than to not fly in my opinion) not worth undoing what you've already got as it's not really a problem if it breaks, but might be good to add a zip tie around the belt gard so if it does break the sticks won't come out and act like pole vault

That's why my braces have threaded rod through the Carbon rod. No epoxy, easily replaceable parts and nothing to break other than a Rod End. I didn't want to deal with Epoxy. And CA never is a for sure.
