Carbon FiberMany well known companies in American, Italy, and Germany have many of their frames mass-produced in Asia, where the materials and manufacturing are inexpensive. Typically, the carbon that is purchased for the fabrication of these frames is monolayer (1 layer of carbon). This type of carbon weighs very little, but cannot compare to higher quality carbon which gives performance through its rigidity. In fact, when a carbon frame weighs little, it is not a sign of quality, instead it may denote monolayer carbon. In contrast, Formigli’s carbon frames are hand made and hand sanded from a 4-6 layer carbon. This type of carbon used by Formigli is 2-3x more expensive than monolayer carbon.
