Agreed. Back in the day I had a Vitus 979 frame that was glued together. It wasn't stiff but it was strong & durable. Some racecar frames have been built that way. Also, many carbon forks have aluminum dropouts which are glued to the carbon. Properly built, those can last a lifetime.I’m opposed to bonding, but theoretically there’s nothing wrong with it. Lots of bonded components in other fields are more stressed and at least as mission critical as a crankset, and do fine. These were defective, hence the dates issued. Still, I don’t like it. And we’re talking about a LOT of product. It’s a nightmare.
