Do you recall what the failure rate percentage in service was for 979 and Plus Carbone framesets vs total production for each model?
We were a retailer of the line back when, had "a lot" of smaller/lighter customers and team riders on them and no doubt did business with your distributor.
Never saw a bond failure ( crash damage for sure ) on the 979 models while the Plus Carbone were only sold to dilettantes who never rode them anyway.
