These are lovely and ride really nicely.

However, £1200+/- for a 15yr old frame. No thanks. Can get a very nice new ti for that.
Nostalgia needs to be strong for this one..
It's also saying that a titanium 'Rocky Mountain' built by TST is worth more than twice as much as a titanium 'Kona' built by TST, no doubt using exactly the same tubes in a fractionally different arrangement, which all seems a bit silly to me.

Mind you, a Rocky Mountain does have rarity value compared to a Kona, doesn't it? Perhaps that explains it.

yeti ti's reg pull £1200, also made by sandvik/TST. rarity of a valued brand is everything!

i've only ever seen em with disc mounts (canti mounts as well)
i think a 19in sold fairly recently on www.yetifan.com
i'd check the sizing if u seriously want 1. toptubes on the ti's were longer than the alu arcs of the same year for some reason?
 
Has Jez seen this Ti-Bolt yet? :)

It might make him Jez-5 bikes-only :lol:

I am VERY tempted but my next bike is gonna be a Merlin 8)

said konas are often worth double the equivalent diamond back..... also made by TST

great if you're a DBR fan :D

Scant - thanks for info re Ti-ARC. A 19" with a long top tube would fit me :wink:
