ABOUT VALITE: No brand of steel is stiffer than another. All steel alloys (Columbus, Reynolds, Tange) are virtually equal in weight and stiffness. The only way to alter stiffness is change tube dimensions.

Valite, a vanadium alloy, is stronger than hi-tensile steel but not as strong as CroMo. Commonly found on Fuji's. The better models often have Valite forks and/or stays paired with a CroMo main triangle. These tubesets appear to have been made by Ishiwata for Fuji.
