Talk to BMXer's clinging to their 2 lb steel forks and they will tell you they win races and have a lot more confidence that they are not going to break the thing off. And so they should. What folks are missing is that bending metal absorbs huge amounts of energy. No car made out of carbon would get a 5 star crash rating. Carbon is an advantage mainly in road bikes for hillclimbing. Carbon STORES energy, increasing the risk of injury when it snaps. | |
