Default RE: Graphite vs. composite parts, is there really a weight difference?

You got that right. I can really see a big difference between my pro evader and my basic model. The pro doesn't flex and doesn't have the slop either.
Yeah, the basic Evaders have some major flex, especially in the shock towers. When I had mine I never really noticed just how much flex it had untill I ran graphite for a while then put the plastic ones back on.

I have found, however, that their isn't really a whole lot of difference flexwise between the AE composite and carbon parts, their composite parts are pretty stout. At least I can't tell much of a difference anyways.


you should look on ebay and you could get a much better price for that set. the tower price is way over priced.
Thanks! I'll look around and see what I can find.
