Steel is fucking rad and I do hope to get onto to a plush steel frame one day, but I'm loving my alum lately.

Most of the weight is not in the frame, it's in the stupid big tyres and suspension (and the fatass on top!)

Carbon was fun, but so fragile and the lightness really didn't change much (because of the above - the frame was beautifully light but it didn't change the overall weight much) It is very repairable, though, much to my surprise
