However, the AL shaft is also 3" in diameter. That's pretty hard to wield. I speak from experience. The carbon fiber shafts are a bit thinner, at 2.75" in diameter, one-piece, and lighter than stock, making them the superior bludgeon.
Yeah, says a lot coming from an armchair driveshaft warrior. The two-piece is not only capable of storing much more kinetic energy, it's capable of delivering it to targets around corners. Try THAT with an aluminum driveshaft. What good is a crumpled up pretzel?
