[net.bicycle] aluminum frames on and off road

dikiw@mmintl.UUCP (Diki Wozniak) (04/18/85)

	A friend here at work is looking at aluminum road racers with 
	lust in his eyes, while the P.K. Ripper has caught mine as 
	a replacement for my Redline (we're talking 20" wheel BMX)
	which I gave to my younger brother. 

	Does anyone have anyone out there have any first hand experience 
	with aluminum frames?  Any thoughts on the superiority of various
	brands?  How do they compare with other exotics (graphite, etc.)?

	Is there anyone in net.land who rides or races BMX?  What are 
	you riding?
