Anyone ever try using this as a hinge pin?

it wouldn't be very good...because CF is really rigid and will just snap wont bend like the metal ones will

Pretty cool if you are a highly skilled driver. Definitely something to stay away from for bashing though.

Just found this video comparison between CF, Aluminum and Ti.

now do you see why CF wouldn't be the greatest??..lol

Ti is the best but obviously the most expensive for this application. C.F. is excellent for shock towers and such. It does not bend like al. does and weighs less.
