Before couple of days i have been watching some doc about carbon drive shaft for F1 cars. They have been tested both alu and carbon, carbon kills alu for sure.
The problem here is that same carbon used for F1 drive shaft (we can just imagine forces
) is not same one used for 1000 or 1500 euro carbon bikes.
What do you think how much is factory cost ebay "el cheepo" carbon frame when Dude selling it for 250USD or so?
I just sold mine carbon frame for less then 200 euro, sick and tired of plastic cheep carbon. If i gonna buy carbon frame IMHO it would not be less then 2000 euro for frameset, then we are talking about decent carbon.
What about scandium?
