The titanium weld and detail appreciation thread.

Shame this is in the MTB section; it is general interest.

Never thought of that - could it be moved?

Approximate year of manufacture would be useful, if you could add please, where available.

Seem to remember the Clark Kent Ti frames were super neat but weren’t purged properly when welded. Controversial I know

CK was made by various welders, so there was some difference between frames over the years. I've had one and it was very nice and has not had an issue.

Not sure I'd have posted that one in an 'appreciation' thread given the repair.

I did think about it, but my idea is just to showcase various manufacturers titanium welds over a period of time.
On the other hand, it's not the worst repair I've seen.

Clark Kent. I believe ca 1991-92 due to spec.
