Airplane & Carve Seatstays/Forks OR R 853 Carve fork??
Who can help?
I am looking at two different custom frames. 1. Columbus Airplane with Carve seat stay & Fork; or 2. Reynolds 853 with Carve fork I am 95kg so weight is only one criteria. I will be using it for weekend road rides/triathlons/races - not heavy stuff. Both frames are approximately the same $ so I am trying to work out which would be best. What is the life span of the Airplane framing??? |

Kim can't tell you specifics but my new frame is Columbus Airplane and the shop I bought mine from the owner rides the same frame a Coppi KSC and he is close to my weight and size (I'm 200lbs(don't know what in Kilos) and 5' 10") and he has raced his for 4-5 years I think with no problems. I can tell you it feels very light though I haven't ridden it since I'm not finished building it yet. Tom
