It's stainless as well as stronger and lighter than Titanium. Check out Independent Fabrication's website.

In terms of ride quality, I couldn't tell a difference between 520, 631, 953 or anything else. I think any difference is structural, rather than perceptible. It's like the difference between 6061 Al and 7005 Al. I'd bet very few could tell a difference in a blindfolded test.

Huh? It's stronger than Ti, has a better Strength/Weight than some versions of Ti, but is much heavier than Ti.
