The bottom line seems to be the more cycles you flex the rod the sooner you need to change it, the killer question is how much flex is too much

Steel has a point that you can flex it to where it will not cause any degradation. Flex it over the point and it starts to weaken.

With Alumininum, ANY flexing weakens it.

IIRC that is

If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
