Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a prepreg which has both excellent mechanical properties such as strength and elastic modulus and excellent appearance such as low-coloring property, transparency and weather resistance, and which also has an excellent tacking property, as well as to provide a fiber-reinforced composite material, a tubular fiber-reinforced composite material, a golf club shaft and a fishing rod, using the prepreg. The gist of the present invention is a prepreg including reinforcing fibers and a resin composition, wherein the resin composition contains the following component [A] to component [D]: component [A]: epoxy resins; component [B]: dicyandiamide; component [C]: a compound which has a boiling point of 130° C. or higher and a molecular weight m of 50 or more and 250 or less, which does not contain an epoxy group within the molecular structure, and which substantially does not have an epoxy resin curing ability; and component [D]: a phenoxy resin; and wherein the resin composition satisfies the following requirements (1) to (3): (1): the resin composition contains from 10 to 40 parts by mass of an isocyanurate type epoxy resin [A1], as the component [A], with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total epoxy resin: (2): the resin composition contains from 10 to 50 parts by mass of a novolac type epoxy resin [A2], as the component [A], with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total epoxy resin; and

(3): the resin composition contains 10 parts by mass or less of a glycidylamine type epoxy resin [A3], as the component [A], with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total epoxy resin.
