I'd agree with you there. Have had a few carbon frames but as a big guy found that they were rather flimsy underneath me. I have always been a lover of aluminium or even the traditional Reynolds steel frames: they just seem to feel far sturdier. In addition, I am a bit of a parts lover so would always try and build up a bike with top notch spec and a slightly cheaper aluminium frame. Just my thoughts on the whole carbon fibre v aluminium frame dilema!!
