I have the C9.25 XLT CF and the main reason I went for carbon fibre is mechanical stability related to thermal changes. I don't have a temperature compensating focuser so the feature of CF that attracted me is that it expands/contracts less than aluminium, so I wouldn't need to touch up the focus as often when doing all night imaging sessions.

It looks sleek and sexy too!

Cheers
