world cup DH racers trust GT but I trust you more
actually, that is not correct. The "grenade" effect you speak of is called catastrophic failure and carbon is TODAYS carbon is not prone to catastrphic failures like Carbon of days past. Head tubes do not pop off TODAYS carbon frames like a weld failure on TODAYS aluminum frame. The thing is, carbon is an evolving technology that continues to improve the furthur it gets developed and applied.
But all you carbon haters are right, we as an industry should not attempt to evolve and push limits. I say lets start making DH bikes out of steel since so many here are compairing carbon with steel...
"never liked full sus GT bikes- won't ever ride 'em." - How the hell would you know if the GT's sucked if you will never ride them? too many people talking out their A$$'s
You could buy a GT Fury DH bike, all carbon and weights the same for less money... sounds like Norco is hosing their customers at that price About Us
