@Nihlink on September 27, 2024 7:26 am As if we have a choice now. Almost every bike is full or hybrid carbon now
@RalphBrooker-gn9iv on September 27, 2024 11:11 am Never been seduced by carbon (or thermoplastic back in the day). Chromoly 4130 and aluminium.
@Kingofcurses-i5q on September 27, 2024 10:53 pm I started biking with my neighbour (hes the same age as me) and its pretty fun ngl
@Thatguywithdritjumper on September 28, 2024 10:47 am My friend has an XC KTM bike, it has suntour on The back and its Carbon, he is sending big ahh gaps there is no way that thing is gonna hold up more than 3 months he has it like 2 weeks
@titiand on September 29, 2024 12:27 am Who’s the idiot out there that thinks it’s impossible to break an aluminum bike?
@ShredlifewithNate on September 29, 2024 4:19 am Carbon fiber is stronger than anything else that’s why it’s expensive. It’s also way more lighter than other metals.😅
@garybuttermark1147 on September 30, 2024 2:20 am Wow that Gray specialized turned into a black marin👍
@maxpretty2003 on September 30, 2024 3:33 am Carbon frame is good for pavement road such as road bikes while in opposite aluminum frame is for most trail such as most MTBs. Thank me later.
@michaelwierzbinski6315 on October 1, 2024 5:19 pm If nobody's caught that that's two different bike frames
@loonaticsrunningtheassylum on October 3, 2024 8:03 pm Ridden and totally abused and fel off of (a lot lol) a carbon Evil Insurgent for about 8 years.. still going strong.
@bardiesjoemark on October 3, 2024 11:11 pm Carbons are for road bikes, MTB or Downhill needs sturdy frames. Haiyaaaaaa!
@Gstar5150 on October 5, 2024 4:06 pm I dont think its necessarily the material, My dad had a really nice metal frame and he still broke it, its all about the angle at which you land.
@Haze_RL on October 7, 2024 11:27 am No that is why you don’t ride a Marin, I’ve snapped 3 of their frames, they’re too weak
@MrMeen on October 7, 2024 3:00 pm I've heard a "snap" like that from a bone before. Glad it was just the frame.
@Komar2wn on October 7, 2024 9:58 pm Dude your riding a SPECIALIZED in one shot and the other is a different bike, explain to me 🙄
@edwardobrien8930 on October 8, 2024 4:38 am That’s a different bike. The one he was driving was white. The one with the broken frame was black.

Well it really depends on how you're riding the bike.

Orange frames beg to differ.
