THE ultimate Ti build

Went out on mine today, first ride, early days, but enough to predict that you are going to be happy!
 
Some update on the shifting cables/housings. You can imagine I won't use
the regular SHIMANO SIS crap :facepalm:

The outer cable of the shifting will be some nice XTR grey brake cable
housings :) Yes, brake cable housings! That's the only way I can fit the
GORE Ride-On set :cool:

Also, the rear mech will get a VENHILL titanium bolt just like
the crankset has. I am thinking of putting on some light ONZA
Ules grips in black.
 
Re:

Such an awesome build! Love ti myself, although mine is a "lowly" '99 Litespeed Obed. As far as your wheels, i'd go with a set of silver CK ISO discs, as the silver goes well with the ti color. Here's a pic of my silver CKs (sorry for the crappy, dark pic):



Also would recommend a silver post clamp to go along with the color scheme:



Nice choice with the ti headset, as I had to go with the standard silver:



Looking forward to seeing the finished product :)

Thanks for the pics, but as I have already mentioned earlier
I decided to go with CHRIS KING ISO hubs in black.

They will be laced with MAVIC XM819 rims (also black).
I will need the contrast and I love black wheels!
