I'm not against anything. Well, not many things, anyway. I don't see myself buying a new bike soon, but maybe I'll buy one, one day. I rode [MENTION=129154]KonAaron Snake[/MENTION]'s Specialized Diverge for a day, and it was outstanding. It was a fairly cold day, and I remember waiting for a traffic light with my leg slung along the top tube, and it wasn't as cold as a steel frame would be, of course. It rode very nicely.
Carbon is a sensible material to use for large scale production. Steel seems best for custom builds. And I guess aluminum is now in the middle.
