OMG, I'll bet I've got > 30,000 miles on my full carbon fork on my

If I replaced a fork every 4000 to 5000 miles, I'd be replacing forks
every six months or less.

You are right... the last paragraph is complete BS. The rest of the
article may have some merit but it also alleges some claims regarding
manufacturing processes overseas that may or may not be true which is
simply unfair.
