Which is why I made the thread in the first place to find these things out.. Smh

You didn't even need to go to Dan's. I'm sure you're smart enough to discern that "Cr-Mo Front Triangle" will be different from a bike whose specs say "Full Cr-Mo." Then from there maybe you could of have thought to yourself to search the forums or google to find out the difference between Chromoly Front Triangle and Full Chromoly.

Maybe, YOU do really need to read up some more instead of "Shaking Your Head" at people.

I don't know everything there is to know about every part on a bike, just looking at the descriptions (which I do) doesn't help if I don't know what everything means. So you use some common sense, this is a community of bike riders built to help other bike riders, so why wouldn't I come here to ask a question where I can get a decent detailed response to the actual question i'm asking instead of reading the same description of a bike over and over.
