how many years have you got out of an aluminum pro frame?
I have an aluminum pro level frame that is 8 yrs old. I am second owner. The prev owner used it mainly for training rides. i have the same at about 4500 miles during the season per year. And some races maybe 8 a year on it. I do not see any cracks on the frame and I am a light to mid weight rider. Just wondering how many miles , years anyone elses has got from a top line frame.
I have another frame i just really like this one and am not ready to stop riding it yet.
thanks

i had one and it went exactly 35,223,136 pedal revolutions...
and then it EXPLODED!
if there are no cracks, or major dents or creases... the dont worry about it. just ride it.
