Heya. I recently geared up with a cheap 1980' aluminum mast which I thought was pretty rad. For 15 bucks, can't find any cheaper really... but then this generous fella saw me with it and offered me a carbon one which he said would be better. I honestly don't know the difference, I mean, the luminium is about 4-5kg lighter and that's all I was going for. But carbon is apparently more popular or something? What reasons would it be better? More solid maybe? Has anyone had any bad experience with amulimilium masts before they want to share to enlighten me a bit plz.
