Hi Firdaus,
At 105kg (approx 230lbs) both the Blur-LT Aluminum and the Blur-LT Carbon
would be fine.
In opposition to your general perception, we actually do recommend the
Carbon version over the Aluminum for bigger/heavier riders.
The Carbon version is actually stiffer (Laterally and Torsionally) and has a
higher ultimate strength than the Aluminum version. The weight saving is an
added bonus.

Here are the details for both to compare -

2012 Blur-LT2 Carbon frame details ­
*Full Carbon frame with one piece lay-up
*140mm rear wheel travel
*VPP multi pivot frame design
*Recommended/Compatible with fork sizes 140 to 160mm (*Tapered)
*Recommended rear max tire size 2.5"
*Disc brake specific design, rotors up to 185mm
*Frame weight with Fox RP23 Air rear shock - Approx 6.0lbs

2012 Blur-LT2 Aluminum frame details -

*Disc brake specific design, rotors up to 203mm
*ISCG-05 chainguide mount

Thanks for your interest in Santa Cruz, and let me know if you have any
other questions.

Carbong FTW!!

Not bad right their customer service...almost instant reply....
Couldnt find any email for Yeti though ...

Actually Carbong is 10 times stiffer than Alummiang.
Get Yeti ASR 7 laa Yeti 575 looks slim and XC oriented.

Between the alu and carbon, the difference is just a scant 200gm. From the looks of it, the BLUR carbon is build for strength rather than weight saver lo... Is the whole frame carbon or just the front triangle?

Yeti CS is also awesome!
i have asked them previously regarding the 303 RDH...

nah...
srawley@yeticycles.com

this is their marketing & communications specialist's email...

Getting a Blur LT eh

Btw, Saturday or Sunday got ride?
