before you all get carried away about scandium it's just a small addition to the aluminium (in the same way chromium/niobium/molybdenum etc are added to steel in small amounts).
traditionally scandium frames were for racing and weren't expected to last forever, i.e. much beyond a few seasons of hard use. metallurgy may have advanced since i read that internet rumour though :-)
