Most people who have Ti bikes love them and say it's better than anything they've ridden. Of course, part of that is self-reinforcing, since the investment cost is high. This leads people to want to believe it was money well spent. Blind tests are hard to do on bikes. But Ti sure is light, so it can't be all bunk.
