Yeah huh? Carbon-fibre has significantly more strength-to-weight and better fatigue-resistance than either steel or alloy. Something tennis-racquet, golf-club, fishing-rods and bicycle makers have caught on decades ago.

An under-utilised material is titanium. At least in U.S. it's very costly due to being monopolised by military. It's so abundant and cheap in Russia, you can walk into any hardware-store and buy titanium garden shovels that'll never rust or break!!! Seems only moto outfit using ti to any great benefit is NCR.
