[QUOTE="teton, post: 153258, member: 20954"] Just becuase you see the word aluminum doesnt mean its going to be very light, in order to make that alloy frame strong enough to handle the high stess loads of racing its going to be a heavy gauge material. Aluminum dosent have the memory or stretch of steel so to compensate the material must be thicker. A lighter weight gauge thin walled steel frame can be used to keep the weight down and still be strong enough to handle the stress. Do you actually think that the other brands havent tried using aluminum, 4130 chromally is still the best frame material unless you race XC mountain bike's. [/QUOTE]
