Bonded rather than brazed, perhaps?
I recall that Cecil Behringer and Pino Moroni managed to braze titanium, but I don't think it was a straightforward process, e.g.:
In the late 70s [Behringer] built probably the only lugged titanium bikes every made (not bonded) by brazing them in an oven filled with inert gas. Not only are there the frames with his name on them, but it seems that most or all that carry the name of his buddy Pino Moroni were probably made by Cecil too.
