it's density and youngs modulus would be the same so if the tube dimensions were the same the stiffness of the tubes would be identical. it's the tensile strength/KSI that enables a thinner tube or a larger o/d to be used (to build a lighter or stronger frame). the tube dimensions dictate stiffness.
