    Mind if I ask why you’d switch to Ti? Probably stiffness, but wouldn’t the added weight be less agile and take more effort overall?

      Stiffness is a factor, but my thought was moreso for weight. Seems a good compromise between the weight of aluminum and the strength of steel. Of course, I didn’t think much of any specific bike or anything. Just a vague notion that if I cracked my carbon frame, I probably wouldn’t want to get another one right away. Never rode a titanium bike so figure to try something new.
