I agree with you though on components.
I'd rather have nice suspension than a carbon frame. I'd also rather have a 1×12 set up than a carbon frame. However, some of the mid range shifting components and cranks work just as well as the high end stuff, they are just a bit heavier.

Nice components almost always come with carbon frames.

Is that just a mountain bike thing? I see plenty of nice drivetrain components

Probably. I don't pay much attention to other types of bikes.

I don't know the answer, but I know a guy who does. Talk to the owner of Mad Dog cycles in Orem.

It was worth it to me, but I spend more time on my mountain bike than in cars.

All I think about is mtn biking. I ride 3-4 times per week.
