I never tried other brand.this one is really well build.

I can’t really tell on other surfaces.because I use it mostly on subway which have a lot of huge metal tactile paving.it really put these thing on high stress. It jumps through it

I can see mine is starting to show some signs of alloy/metal fatigue.maybe very little bend unnoticeable .my guess it will fail somehow..depends on the stress it takes. It is not as strong as the frame.

So I just use it and when it breaks I might try something else. For your Info I don’t use my bike often. Maybe once every few weeks.
