It looks like the the F3:13 will be sold as a complete bike with either ultegra or veloce and it will be made out of stuff called 24IMUD carbon.This is an Intermediate modulus carbonthat has a tensile strength is 24 tons/sq mm compared to a Paris that can withstand a pulling force of 46 tons/sq mm and the F4:13 is made from 30 tons/sq mm carbon.

It also looks like it is laid up in the same mold as the F4:13

Is High Resistance carbon for cheaper frames on the decline? I have never heard of Intermediate modulus carbon before. Would this be the equivaliant of 700-T carbon?

Why can't there be one standard for describing this stuff? or do marketing people want us confused?
