* I invested in a decent quality echo / echo ultrasonic thickness gauge and used it to determine the amount of Ti to grind off. I went to a minimal thickness of 0.55 mm and I know that Darren Baum has gone as low as 0.4mm on some of his "show" Ti frames so I reckon I'm reasonably safe. Darren is just up the road from me and as usual he was incredibly generous with his time and knowledge when I bugged him for information which could help me.
