My 'race' bike is alloy framed & the harshest to ride but it also has the stiffist wheels, the shortest wheelbase and thickest tubing.

This was to show how the cost of welding can very a the price of a bike frame so much.

Vegemite is great, helps if you start consuming it young though.
It's also helps to reduce 85.9% of power lost through your frame too!
