I am about 2 weeks into ownership of my Lynskey Pro Cross and thoroughly love it. Its rigid where I want it rigid and, yet, still a very plush ride. This stated with all of the traditional benefits of a ti frame (e.g., relatively light for a metal).
I haven't really have had the opportunity to go out and "throw down" or ride competitively. This said, I am completely enamored with this bike and couldn't ask for anything more.
Aesthetically, the bike is brilliant with its understated and, yet, regal form. Also, the welds are immaculate. I hear how perfect Moots welds are and not to completely discount this "truism", I think that the Moots welds are vastly overrated and Lynskey (even with the Litespeed lore) are vastly underrated.
You cannot go wrong with this frame; albeit I am very biased.
