First Titanium Baiku

[Tallpaul]

A combination of post holiday blues and shiny new steed forced me to turn what would otherwise be a lazy afternoon in to a wet, muddy, fun one!

With the rain in my face, i headed out on to my local 'trails' with my new DBR Axis TT to see how Ti differed from alloy or steel. Soaked within 20 minutes, the Axis and i proceeded to have much fun ploughing muddy fields and water-logged meadow!

Two points of note, this finally confirms that i don't like alloy hardtails (much) and that for canti's, Kool Stop Eagle II pads are way better than anything else i've tried

Nice one TP, thats a mighty quick build :shock:

Strictly speaking she's not finished, hence no appearance in Reader's Bikes, but the temptation to get her muddy became too great
