Now with Conti Gran Prix GT 28c tyres, the old Ti Airborne seatpost off my Van Nick (shim needed) & the Ti railed Fizik Arione...
Test ride = 'Nice'

And now with mudguards...

Thinking someone should start a PX Ti thread

Would a TI stem look a bit too much though? £80 I’ve seen one for.

You're on slippery slope. Stem, seatpost, bolts, spavers, QR levers....I know

You have to have a Ti seat post, it’s the law

Excellent. I'll be able to find mine at the café as it's got a black alloy post.

you missed out drilled ti washers to go with the bolts I bought some & they look beautiful 👍 shame you cant see them once they are behind a bolt

I feel the odd one out on this, I prefer a nice black carbon post on Ti.

That's the odd two out then: so do I as it provides a bit of contrast. The same applies to forks. I'm ambivalent on Ti stems.

Mine has gloss black carbon forks and a Ti seat post. I think it’s a nice looking combination, the bars on mine are carbon but the stem is ally.

I’m wondering what’s good to clean your Ti? I’ve read white vinegar is good & those green scotch washing up pads.
If you buff deep & it ends up a bit too polished it should self heal & start to oxidise again & go back to grey.

Just Mr Sheen or similar. Nothing special to waste money on.

Yep I'm using Mr Sheen. Or whatever I can steal from the dusting cupboard.

Three of my Ti bikes have carbon seatposts and the fourth has a Ti seatpost. The next one on order will also have a carbon post

I use a bit of GT85 and, very occasionally, Autoglym car polish
