Evening all,

As my Iron Horse is now finished. I'm beginning to get magpie eyes. I'm saving up for my next build, which I'm wanting to be a lightweight mid travel (130-140mm) hartail. So far I've been looking at the Lynskey Ridgeline Ti frame, which runs 140 forks.

It'll be used for trail duties, and all day epic rides, so want it to be a comfy ride too. I'm leaning towards Ti, as it'll be the last bike I'll buy for at least the next 5-10 years.

What other Ti frames are out there?

Tom

    Haha, got my 1st child due to be born any day now, I'll be buying him a bike sooner, so i guess it isn't quite true!

    I'd look at getting that genius ultra hardtail thing off CRC, then buying a ti frame to put the parts on. Unless you want to bling it out with XTR or something.
