Is the frame of mountain bike good for carbon steel or aluminum alloy? (Xie Xie)

Answer:

3, because of steel products, welding, and processing means more than Aluminum Alloy, so steel "accidental" (such as the possibility of Anshang weld) than aluminum frame.Of course, is Aluminum Alloy frame advantage: light weight (but only slightly heavy chrome molybdenum steel 5% ~ 10%); good corrosion resistance (Cr Mo steel components compared to stainless steel, anti rust capability is obviously better than that of carbon steel and low steel)
The reasons are as follows:1, in general, the product, the price is slightly lower Cr Mo steel frame;2, the comprehensive strength and hardness of Cr Mo steel has more advantages! Especially in the "force", the obvious advantages of Cr Mo steel. So, the life of chrome molybdenum steel is also significantly better than Aluminum Alloy frame (not that used can not be used, but in keeping the original size and strength under the premise)
What about carbon steel?Say, should also be chrome molybdenum steel frame and aluminum alloy shelf than?On the whole, both have advantages.But personally, I recommend chrome molybdenum alloy steel frame.
