To help ease you in, these are my Titanium golf clubs :D

Pfft, can't beat the sound coming from my cobra titanium drivers. That thing makes the biggest whack of any club I've ever used.

Thank you. The disc rotors used to be titanium (bad idea) and it has titanium bars as well as a lot of miscellaneous hardware. Less than 40lbs, which is respectable.

She's a serious piece of hardware, It must be a blast to ride!

It must take a bit of communication, getting use to unweighting and appyling body english at the same time, while off road riding.

It's a true test of a relationship. But my wife and I have had a lot of fun on it. It was built for travel, we just haven't taken it anywhere yet.

Just got done with a few up-grades:
'04 Ultimate, 59cm
SRAM Force gruppo -- compact
0-G brakes
Ksyrium ES's
Speedplays
K-sword
Reynolds cages
Toupe

weighs in a tic over 15 lbs. Should eliminate the final few excusses I have about being slow going up hills [can't be I'm too fat!] :(

Thanks to whomever [sorry, forgot who did it first, but it was some one here] on the LAF band around the seat post.

(oh and thanks to 'Strong Bad' for letting me see what my plans to go blue would kind of look like)

reef58 04-28-07 05:42 PM

I'll take it you like blue. For a second I thought the lounge chair in the background was attached to your saddle. I was thinking WTF? he he

Godwin 04-28-07 06:12 PM

Yeah, I really didn't take notice of that chair until after I took the picture (it's my landlady's backyard).

My IF CJ Ti
 
Picked up this frame/fork/headset used. 2002 Crown Jewel Ti, originally painted by Hot Tubes but with some serious damage to the chainstay paint, like this:
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...0Ti/IFrtcs.jpg

Took it to a local body shop, and for $40, they sanded it and matched the paint to get it to look like this (in person it's a perfect match):

http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...i/IMG_7219.jpg

Built it up with parts from some other rides I sold recently, and now it sort of looks like this. I've since changed the stem and the gotten rid of the pump mount on the top tube (ordered a Blackburn frame pump):

http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...J%20Ti/IF3.jpg

I have weird fit issues (long inseam, short torso), and this comes very close to where I would be with a custom frame. Relatively short TT and relaxed HT angle help. Really love the way this thing rides. Problem is at the same time I found this a came across a used Seven Alta that will probably fit me better. Will post pics after its built.

Siu Blue Wind 04-28-07 10:26 PM

Wow they did a good job on the paint. Looks great! :)

DAAAAAMMNNNNN...old school. I'd shoot a pic of my FT-3 (Ti/CF) Callaway driver and my JAS Piper (Ti/Tungsten) putter but, well, it'd be silly...

Thanks, they hit very well :) That Biggest Big Bertha has won me a few Longest Drive awards in golf tournaments.

I use Lemon Pledge on the frame, and no touch tire cleaner on my tires.

Sweet IF, reminds me of my old Ti CJ it was a 2002 as well. The repair job looks outstanding! Congrats.
