Find a bike with a bottom bracket area made form large oversized tubing. My opinion is any material will do as long as it's big! The small tubes flex too much ending in damage. This Lemond was aluminum. New replacement frame is carbon and aluminum but still wimpy with small tubes.
If I were you, I'd look for big tubes like Cannondale. Avoid small diameter tubes.
12,000 miles then this after riding at 220-245
