I bought a Ti bike marketed as an endurance, comfort bike. What I found was that it's much cheaper and easier to setup various vintage steel bikes. Maybe others realize this and are opting out of Ti. To me, if the Lynskey did fit the bigger tires and if the carbon fiber fork was more compliant like many of my good steel forks then it would be a keeper and a good buy. Instead, the weight and corrosion resistant pluses of the bike are not enough to sway me. Just not the best choice in my book.
What I read is that you just dont like the bike you bought.

Cool.
