I don't really fully trust carbon rims enough at this point to risk $1500 on
them given my habit of brutalizing rims. I'm watching the development
happening and will likely buy some eventually - I want to see what happens
with this new crop of super-wide rims.
I had a carbon Enduro and now I'm on an alloy one; I can honestly say I that
I'm perfectly happy with the ride of alloy and with $1500 in my pocket to
spend on road trips plus whatever else. Plus with the alloy frame I can ride
it with complete abandon and put it away wet. I can get a complete new Enduro
Comp for less than the price of an Enduro carbon frame.
