hmm. Steel frame builder extolls the virtues of steel. Discourages use of Alu & carbon.
A bit like Chris King's rant on integrated headsets.
Where was he discouraging the use of other materials?
His comments seem pretty fair to me (and it was written over 10 years ago).
It also seems pretty clear he's not a steel-only builder..
"We built road bikes, mountain bikes, cross bikes, tandems, rigid, suspended, titanium, aluminum, steel and carbon. We did a bit of everything."
and, in fact, appear to have embraced carbon fibre.. http://www.ibiscycles.com/tech/
