Steel of course! :-). If it cracks, I figure I can still sit and spin, finally making it home without calling the wife. And some places, there is no wireless phone signal. I hate having to hike up to the top to find line-of-site to shoot a text. And then the wife may be navigationally challenged, which includes programming the GPS. I would love to entertain Titanium frames even though they are a bit noodly.
You've certainly got the most impressive line up of failed frames of anyone I know. Manufacturers should line up and give you test bikes.
