I had no idea that cromoly tubes were so expensive so Im now looking for alternatives…
a generic question I have is, does it really matter on what I use of its not for a competition setup?
I mean I dnt care if its relatively heavy… my initial thoughts was using stainless steel tubes or even construction rods but everyone online seem to recommend only using cromoly…
edit: ordered 5x25mm wtainless steel tubes for 15eur (1.5m) the same in cromoly couldnt find them under 70eur…
I assume rear rack but then they’re usually aluminium no?
alu is to weak and not a good alternative to cromoly (i had the pizza rack from specialized fail on me on heavy load)
Ah yeah well they have weight limits sure
Good luck on your build though!
