My first Ti build, a Lynskey Helix disc road is just about done, sans the bar tape which finally arrives tomorrow. I took it out this morning for what was supposed to be a quick, 10-15 mile loop ended up being close to a 50 mile ride. I didn't care about the temps hovering in the low 30s and I just kept going, enjoying my morning ride. I was expecting an ultra smooth, predictable, calm ride because of its Ti construction and it didn't disappoint. Even when out of the saddle, it reacts so smoothly and almost a bit too well behaved for me. It is comfortable, nimble and most of all, the handling is on point which is a huge plus for me. That is the one ride characteristic that usually helps me decide whether or not I keep a bike.
