In about a month, I will be ready to purchase yet another frame. I have been looking to go with a full carbon bike as I plan on racing mostly long course with a few OLY's and Sprints here and there.
My desicion to go with Carbon is based primarily on the comfort factor. Yet, the full Carbon bikes that I am looking at include:
1. Aegis Trident - Built in US
2. Kestrel Arifoil - built in Tiawan
Now my dilemma is as so: I have been eying the Carbo up since last year, but have not been able to test ride this frame. I do not doubt Ves's ability to make a quality frame, but am more so looking to compare the ride quality of the Carbo versus a full carbon frame. I am looking to hear from anyone who ownes one of these bikes to provide some feedback based on the performance of this frame and the ride quality (using Sc as a blend). No doubt carbon is good, but the frames on the market might limit a precise fit for me. I know with Ves, my fitting and comfort issues will be addressed.
Any info would be most greatly appreciated.
