They are so thin they have trouble holding the bottle cage bosses in :roll: , just too damned light, it's crazy, if only they made the frame 1/2 pound heavier and a bit stronger more would have survived, read on the net somewhere 8 out of 10 have cracked :cry:

That does look like shipping damage though which is a shame.
