WHICH TITANIUM FRAME ?

rrsodl

Last week I had in my hands a Lynkskey frame ( around £1300 for the frame only) I can honestly say I was not impressed with the welding - it looks very untidy. I just saw a picture of an Enigma frame and the same thing. I'm sure the welding is fine but it doesn't look nice. On the other hand my Van Nicholas Euros frame has a very neat welded joints.

Yes you are. Try as many titanium frames as you want and then try a frame made from Columbus XCr, and I guarantee you won't go back to any of the titanium ones ....

My next road bike will be XCR...

Cancel! 953...

True Temper S33 is my steel of choice.

I've a custom XCr and it's a stunning ride. Decided against 953 as it's reckoned to have a harsher ride for the same build.

Either would be a lovely choice though.
