Hi

Did this test ever materialize, waterrockets? What is the latest on this subject?

As I'm racing an old 531 steel frame now, I do not notice the frame being a limiting factor. It's stiff enough. I've raced carbon and alu and I enjoy steel more. Wondering if I should build the alu Cannondale frame that I have up on the wall but this thread reminded me of the crazy stiffness, I'm going to ride steel at least the rest of the year.

I think frame stiffness is waaay overrated. I know stiff frames feel faster accelerating but that's mostly all it is, a feeling.
