>>1354030Yeah I fucked up phone posting but I wanted to chime in. As soon as as there is a single flaw in you carbon whatever it's a write off and safety issue however with Alu I have had a crack develop and take 10 years to fail... they are entirely different beasts Andy shop has been almost burned and out of pocket doing carbon waranties for customer... it's all a nightmare TBPH
>>1354031You forgot Alcholic...I don't pretend I'm anything else than a filthy casual guy who loves to 50km trips on the cheap Alu bikes I build up and customise from spare parts. Bike study is a passion of mine.
