So the best reason to buy a Ti frame today is that it is very durable, will survive crashes that would likely destroy a CF frame, and cosmetically will retain its appearance through years of use and abuse. By adding CF into the frame, you suddenly have a frame that is no more durable than a CF frame, and you've lost the advantage of a Ti frame in the first place.
Having ridden neither i may be way off here, but i have a hard time believing that you can have two entirely different materials that perform the same. The charicteristics of Carbon Fiber is vastly different then that of Titanium.
Again, i havnt ridden either so i couldn't tell you which i think feels better, or there is a very big difference...but to say there is no difference seems a tad absurd.
