i was just wondering cause i've worked with fiberglass before, and its pretty strong with like 6 layers, and still really lightweight. alpine uses 6 layers to make their crazy car audio system setups, which hold up under all the compressed air from subwoofers, etc. i didnt know CF was easier to work with, but it is more expensive, which is why i wondered about fiberglass. and actually, someone was saying a glass bike would be cool, engineers actually figured out that glass can be really strong when properly used, and it was possible to build a suspension bridge or something crazy from glass.

anyways, i guess i could try to make a fiberglass frame, or i could just suck it up and go with c/f
