    Chrome moly worth it?

    I'm looking to get a BMR STB. It's 30$ more for the chrome moly version. Is it worth it?

    it's lighter for the same amount of strength as offered by the mild steel version. if you are concerned about maybe 5 lbs difference, sure.

    I don't care about weight at all... I thought chrome moly was supposed to be stronger...

    same diameter thinner tubing.
