Hi, Noobie back with more questions. I've started bike commuting a couple weeks ago. I'm riding an old Giant CFR2. Everyone here seems to ride steel. My commute is 18 miles now (I added a couple miles since my last thread). Is there a reason not to commute on a carbon bike? It's my only option at the moment, but I'm wondering if it is going to break down on me or something? Why would commuting on carbon be different than road riding on carbon?

I'm planning on working my way up to a 28 miles round trip commute by next Summer, and really enjoy the lightness of this bike.
