Rob is neither the first nor only builder to bond carbon tubes into metal frames, JRD in France, among current artisan builders, seem particularly keen on the method. As with any other technique, it's as good as the engineer doing the detailed design, but it doesn't differ fundamentally from all-carbon tube and lug construction or aluminium frames with carbon stays, which are pretty commonplace.
