 Titanium Bikes
Titanium’s unique properties make it an excellent material for bicycle construction. Its high strength, low density, low modulus, excellent fatigue and corrosion resistance deliver a skeleton that is not only extremely strong and durable, but also incredibly lightweight.
Titanium does not break down, rust or corrode under any atmospheric conditions. Titanium is so resistant to corrosion it does not even need to be treated or painted. Some manufacturers do so (Admittedly adding only a few grams. But, like dieters, top cyclists really do count every one).
Similar to steel, Titanium has an in-built flexibility, only it is more pronounced. Therefore it is ever so slightly ‘springy’, which means it can absorb road vibration before it reaches the rider (A Titanium seat post more or less eliminates it). Consequently, you feel like you are gliding across tarmac, even when riding hard.
Unlike aluminium or carbon bikes, Titanium won’t ‘snap’ in an accident. This is because, like steel, it ‘gives’ a little (In fact, Titanium is even more forgiving than steel, which is why its ride quality is so renowned.) Also, like steel, it is incredibly strong. But it is lighter. And it does not rust. Ever. This is one of the reasons why almost every manufacturers frame is guaranteed for the lifetime of its owner.
