My three friends have been using this spindle since one season on MTB... They are between 70-80kg...

In Turkiye we have 12 races at one season, plus local races and trainings...

What kind of aluminum is it, where can I buy them, and how much are they?

My wife is only about 100 pounds, and I'm thinking this might work for her.

People who run these deserve it when they get hurt from them breaking.

I have no idea about how strong heat treated aluminum is, but since there is not a singel pedal out there with aluminum spindles, I'm sure there is a very good reason.

Some thing are just a no,no for me, like aluminum bolts on stem and brakes, aluminum rotors, etc. and I wouldn't ride these spindles, the Ti ones already scare me....LOL!

The development goes forward and if anyone get hurt, speedy recovery.

No need to say they deserve something.

Aluminium fatigues over time no matter what use its put to. The trick is to replace it before it breaks underneath you.

From what I have read here http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=570639 I do understand that AFCBike.com is a friend of Hasan Cagri and he gets some protype products which are not available on their web site.
On the other hand and regarding to my post in above linked thread I have purchased some Delrin derailleur jockey wheels from AFCBike.com and must say that after 900kms they are working perfect.Silent due to delrin material and smooth.
I was told by their international sales department that these guys are test riding their stuff for a long time before deciding to offer them on their website to be available.
And as far as I have checked these CB spindles are not available for the rest of the world yet.
