Sorry. I should have made clear that I was discussing the guy who felt compelled to give the OP "advice" about his wheels.

As for that other guy I just ignore his vitriol. And yes I own and ride 3 aluminum bikes, one of which I race cyclocross. No one here has condemned me for that. We try to keep it civil here and allow each other to have our opinions. The rub, so often, is in how the opinion is expressed or how many "facts" are drawn out of thin air to support it.
