>>987074No, i've owned a carbon tomasso and this isn't right, that bike was a piece of shit.
high end carbon > high end aluminium > high end steel = titanium > low end carbon > low end steel > low end aluminium
Aluminium bikes aren't overrated, they're trendy at the moment. Hipsters buy them because they finally accept a high performance road bike is GOAT but they don't want to contradict their earlier ranting about spandex wanabees, freds, and passing racing tryhards on their fixie/ rigid mtb. Not buying carbon allows them to actually have a good bike and still maintain their fragile delusions.
>>987063>second hand frameset Not really a thing unless it's steel. Look for a complete allez/ caad/ whatever from the past 5 years or for an old Klein/ Cannondale which are brilliant bikes although with harsh rides.
