Fear the Carbon!!!

Why fear the carbon? So I went through 2 pairs of HED carbons in less than 6 months and then had to have the rear Zipp replaced after another year but at that time I was racing them 2-3 times a week and am still using them 4 years later which is more than can be said of the Mavic Kysriums which only lasted 1 season and at that time cost almost as much,oh and I weigh 165lbs and am definately more of a sprinter than a climber
Wouldn't pay the extortionate price that they charge for Zipps nowadays though,they almost make Lightweights look good value for money!
