Frame Material for FG?
6’6” 220#
masher more than a spinner
Columbus cromo
Columbus zona
Columbus life os
no tricks just long rides as fast as I can pedal
what and why is the better material?
I currently ride an undersized Masi riser uno with 49:15 and I like it but it’s a touch small.
My current fixed 49:15 a little small for me but its fun.

Go to your frame builder and give them all the info and they should be able to give you a good sense of what tubing or mix of tubing to use to give you the ride quality you desire. A frame need not be just made out of one kind of tubing. Columbus XCr for me...LOL Though really titanium ; )
