yes but it all depends how people land the bikes how heavy they are, and how many times it was rode in 4 months, a bike could snap within 6 month and be rode twice a week or snap in 4 month and been riden every day. my alibongo seems well built so i dont think it will be a issue in strenght i just ride it, i trust my frame, and dont want a frame that will make me worry about it cracking, i have no worries in the alibongo snapping, so that means, theres is a 100% focus going into my riding. it seems well put together, unlike some frames that are being used on here. :blink:
