Titanium is difficult to bond
Titanium while having desireable ride qualities is difficult to bond. It can only be welded in an inert environment. The need for an oxygen free environment makes it difficult to get a lasting bond, and taking the oxygen out, can suck the life out of the end result.
Hence I'm afraid I can no longer be a member of the "titanium club"
