Merlin were the only other maker that went as light as Litespeed, but light isn't necessarily a good idea with ti. My KHS (made by Litespeed) is very light, but IMO it would be a better frame if it was stiffer (i.e., heavier). A Hei Hei frame in the same size is 12% heavier and I'll bet it's a better frame as a result. TST frames also have a much better reputation for not cracking than Litespeed.
