I've been riding a CF Specialized Allez Epic since '91. It must've suffered greatly when I hopped on it at 245-lbs after a couple years off. So far, it's holding up just fine.

I've replaced my T2000 tennis racquet with a CF Pro-Staff back in '84. Still working great! How many people are playing with the T2000 nowadays?

Same with my golf-clubs and fishing-rods...

BTW - Ferrari guys are whimpy geeks...
