| Newbie question: Advantages of monocoque frame
I tried searching for an answer on this, but couldn't find an answer I could understand. Could someone give me the beginner's answer as to why a monocoque frame is more desirable than a tube-built one? Is it just for historical accuracy? For my kit, I'll be primarily interested in safety, reliability, ease of assembly, and performance (in that order) - how does my choice of frame affect these? |
