Well some steel soft tails do crack
"I'm not sure how steel can work the same as Ti for this rear end, however, without a pivot point.
Titanium has a very strong fatigue/flex point...did these steel YBB frames ever have a problem with cracking?"
Well I had two sunn exact 998 flex frames (1 a replacement for the first) that both cracked in the chain stay BB weld.........upgraded to an exact ti.... problem solved.......still liked the ride of the steel though.......want another but in HT.
