I'd do a blindfold test, but I doubt the difference can be felt.
titanium is springy, but when drawn into tubes and welded together, not so much. Especially when the triangles are small and the tubes are oversized.

I think when I considered buying a Ti Brompton I worked out the effective weight saving of around 1kg was approx £500. That's an expensive KG!
I know for the hardcore racers they spend thousands for weight savings but I would prefer to carry an extra £500 in my pocket and put up with carrying a 1kg heavier Brompton or purchase second standard Brompton even
