What do you mean by “I wouldn’t be considering aluminum or carbon…”?
At least you did something to it but yeah keep the maintenance regular. If you have to pause for a while to wonder when you last tuned the bike up it is long past time or you are having memory issues and should see a doctor.
I mean I prefer the nice ride of steel or titanium that is why I personally wouldn't consider aluminum or carbon.
