The added stiffness of 7005 aluminum gives this frame a more immediate response from the pedals-a quicker feeling acceleration. 'Cross racing is all about constant accelerations out of corners and after remounting. The bigger aluminum tubes have a comfortable feel when shouldering and are very unlikely to bend in a crash , making it easier to get to the finish line after a nasty encounter with a barrier.
Easton carbon 'cross fork is available for an additional $350.
