"I couldn't help notice one interesting thing regarding the tubing material used. They are made with Columbus Chromor. From discussions here on the list. I was informed that this material is bunk. But why would a frame manufacturer go out of their way to make such beautiful frames using such "lower-end" material? I could be wrong, but I would be surprised to see many takers on the list for such a frame." =============== Well, wasn't the Cromor frame the frame that recieved the highest praise for its ride quality from the majority of people who test-rode it when a certain mainstream magazine (I have forgotten which magazine exactly) had 6 or so identically dimensioned frames made from 6 different materials?? I certainly don't chose my bikes based on their tubing stickers. I guess that's good for me too, as there's probably lots of neglected Cromor-framed beauties out there at bargain prices.
