I have some doubts about titanium 3D printed frames and frame parts: 3D printed parts are cheaper to produce but are usually heavier and have lower mechanical properties.

For aluminum, besides the weight, the stiffness is totally different than for titanium resulting in much more rigid frames without any vibration damping.

+ of course the well known problem of fatigue of aluminum.
