This also leads me to another question but going to post a new thread there in General Discussion.
Absolutely, fair enough. Cost is a concern. I just wanted to point out, not just for you but also for others tracking the thread, that if something happens to a carbon frame it doesn't have to go in the trash. An aluminum frame is much more problematic to fix than carbon, steel is pretty simple.
