Ti frame modification

Does anyone know of a UK company that will do modifications to a ti frame?
I've picked up another titanium genesis latitude frame for peanuts and am toying with the idea of putting a Rohloff on it, but, I don't really want to use a chain tensioner so was wondering if it would be possible to have it fitted with sliding dropouts... yes yes a chain tensioner or frame with sliding dropouts would be the way to go but I'm curious to know if anyone does this.

Try Curtis bikes and Argos. It wont be cheap though, ti isnt easy to work or weld.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350

Eccentric BB?0

Eccentric bb... The bb shell on the genesis is for standard 24mm spindles, it's not a bb/pf30 shell or such like... so an eccentric bb is not an option, pardon the ignorance but I know nothing about them.
Thanks for the suggestions rockmonkeysc... Will contact them and see what they say.0 -
You can get eccentric BBs for normal BSA frames.
