like a lot of others i have got the ti` bug big time. idea for this build was to use as much ti` as i possibly can.
2012 van nicholas tuareg frame.
controltech ti` mania bars, stem and seat post.
controltech double play cranks.
sram XX front and rear mechs with ti` jockey wheels.
sram xx shifters.
ti` chain. i wouldnt buy one again as the weight saving is very small and not worth the very high price.
ti` 11-32 cassette.
chris king ti` cassette lock ring.
chris king hubs.
chris king ceramic bottom bracket.
chris king head set.
stans podium rims,
DT Swiss Aero Lite Spokes built with ti` nipples.
formula R1 racing brakes and rotors.
powercordz cables in I-link mini outers.
token full ti` skewers.
all bolts and washers are ti` and finished with a ti` bell!
i built the wheels myself and being my very first attempt i am pleased with results and didnt ruin anything.
the forks are most likely temporary till i can afford some decent suss` ones.
also the saddle is going to be changed although its more comfy than it looks.
i was going to use polished xtr m960 cranks(which i had) with a home brewed components ti` ring but was robbed like most other people. cheers dan you crook!!
it weighs 18lbs and 3 oz so very light and from the short rides so far its extremely nimble.
