I am building a pure as possible titanium bicycle. I ordered a custom Marinoni Sportivo Ti frame. I acquired a titanium seat post and headset. The groupset, Campagnolo Super Record EPS Titanium is somewhat titanium. I even got a Brooks Swift titanium saddle and some titanium Crank Brothers eggbeaters. But alas, the handlebars and wheels are aluminium. And the forks are carbon fibre. I am looking for non-carbon fibre forks. I know I can't get titanium handle bars because titanium does not bend like aluminium. Bicycle wheels are consumables. I did get the Campagnolo Neutron Ultra clinchers.

My obsession with titanium is I didn't want my high end bicycle to be made out of plastic which is what carbon fibre is. Titanium is a very beautiful metal and it doesn't rust. My frame is not painted. I will post some pictures when I get it all put together. This bike is testing my mechanical skills and why I haven't posted any pictures of my new 1963 Gitane. The Gitane cost $200 CDN, the Marinoni with the unassembled parts almost $10,000 CDN. Which bike am I going to fuss over first?
