I've had one of these in my hand last night when I went to Geoff's house.

They are pretty nice and good work but seemed to me to be surprisingly heavy for a lump of Ti..

Great skills in making them Sean.. 8-)

Yeah. I think grade 2 (pure ti') is a little heavier than the alloys. But the alloys are nearly x2 as costly.
Av a look on the Ti' Shop to get a better idea of ther costs invloved.
Could probly look at removing a bit more material to reduce weight.
You can anodise the ti' also.

Id like TI but stainless is a good compromise for looks!

Can you do the rear spacer too in Stainless??

Kris

When i can get over to Sheffield i'll get some bar cut into dics and knock a few up just out of interest.
