I think the regular aluminium ultra box frames look nicer than that carbon thing.

Steel is real though  ;)

i've had the same pair of carbon fibre forks on my MTB for nigh on 15 years admitedly i only use it to tow the kids about these days but it did take some stick in the early days and is still going strong.

I saw a set of Carbon forks snap at Bournemouth regional last year, and a couple of weeks ago a kid down at Peckham snapped his carbon bars.  They both went down hard.

it's alright for towing the kids about though...

Maybe a gap in the market there if anyone wants to exploit it? ???

Joey Bradford has one of those new GT carbons, but when he came over to the UK to race and do clinics, he rode a regular alloy frame, not the carbon one.

How do you get a tob tube pad for that? Strap a sleeping bag around it?  :idiot2:
