First MM [Pedal] Bike Build: Shimano Fondriest

I just assumed the Carbon Nanotube Technology was a bit of marketing buzz and ignored it when making my purchase. Since you brought it up, though, I did a little research. Apparently Easton determined that the weakest link in a carbon layup was the area where no carbon was presen (just resin)... so they impregnated their resin with 'carbon nanotubes', which are supposed to be hexgonal shaped carbon aggregates (concrete is strengthened in the same way with rocks). Must make it stronger, I guess?

that makes sense, I always wondered which parts were carbon nanotube because you're right, carbon nanotube technology these days is a bit of a marketing buzz word. BTW - there's a huge difference between carbon nanotube, carbon fiber and carbon. Sounds like this fork is carbon or carbon fiber with resin impregnated with carbon nanotubes.
