Thanks.
Steel would be - and is - a great material for a rain bike. A little Wiegle's Framesavr, make sure the BB can dry out after most rides - should be no problem at all, if we assume fenders are being used. But the other materials work great too, no wrong answer.
We can ask him... for myself, welded stems just don't thrill me so much. Not sure why - but those Moots stems sure are things of beauty.

Thanks again!
1 - buy a bike
2 - buy a frame
3 - buy the Warmth Package
4 - come by the Towers here and pick up a pair
5 - see us in Austin at Nahmbs
I guess I'm doing everything I can to avoid putting a single pair of socks in an envelope and mailing them. Would two pairs at $25 with shipping fly?
