Hey, guys, having both frame styles, I got to wondering:
Other than aesthetics and weight, what are the advantages / disadvantages of cantilevered vs triangulated (diamond shaped) frames?
What strengths/ weaknesses between the two? A realy academic question, I know, but on a bike forum, I figure there might be an enthusiast with maybe a bit of engeneering background who could answer this for me. Anyone?
