How is Carbon DS > Aluminum? Explain that one to me.

An extra $600 - $700 to save potentially 1 extra pound of ratational mass does not seem "better" to me. And the only reason I say potentially saving 1 pound is if you were only looking at the DSS. You could potentially save approximately 1 pound of rotational mass AND save $675 if your two options were PST and Axle Exchange.

Just food for thought.
I said as far as weight goes, for which you proved my point

I did not claim that one was "better" than the other... No need to get the panties in a bunch. :happy0180:

Thanks for providing the weight of the other shafts, I was wondering about that. Cool note, if anybody is interested in the DSS shaft they have a nice video about their process and testing them as well!
