You hit on one of the main points gearing me towards the Calfee, Warranty! It says a lot about a frame when it gets a 25 year warranty. The only thing that I question about Calfee, is if he up on the new technology out there. Then again I am not up on it either. Thanks again!

Well, I admit I am not too knowledgeable on the latest technology either. I think that some companies change their products every year just so that their customers will buy new stuff every year and have the latest and greatest. I ride with a guy that has a 2007 Specialized and he wants to sell it and buy a 2008 Specialized. When I ask him what the difference is, all I get is that the 2008 has a different paint job and graphics on it. So the real difference is cosmetic. My 2004 Tetra looks exactly like a 2007 Tetra. Calfee makes minor upgrades but they change very little which I like. This makes a used Calfee more desirable than many other brands of bikes. Calfee is also the only company that I am aware of that will allow a warranty to be transferred from the original owner to a second owner.

I think that Craig makes changes to his bikes as better materials become available. The Dragonfly, for instance, uses Boron along with Carbon to reduce weight.
