Titanium Bike For Alps Epic Ride?! | Moots CRD 2023 Inferno Bike Check

[@andrewmcalister3462]

I like that GCN is separating out the sponsorship plugs from the ride itself. I'm a realist and know you've gotta pay the bills - separating out the content from the sponsorship is the right way to go.

[@truantray]

Tip of the iceberg. What you do not see on GCN is the real conflict of interest.

[@markreams3192]

I’ve owned almost every frame material in a bike. Three years ago I bought a Sage Titanium Barlow gravel bike. The ride is very smooth and the weight is reasonable. The frame is almost indestructible. I get a lot of positive comments on how the bike looks. Because it’s a gravel bike with close to endurance road geometry, with a second set of wheels it’s very versatile. It’s a lifetime bike.

[@BC-wj8fx]

That was my buying decision for titanium: lifetime bike. Finally swapped its carbon forks for ti too.

[@gcntech]

Sounds like a great bike! Titanium is a super great frame material! Would you buy another carbon bike?

[@Desertmouth]

[@shred3005]

About 4 yrs ago I built up a Lynsey GR270 gravel bike in brushed titanium and etched writing. It looks lux. I’ve built with flexibility in mind, Ultegra 2x rather than 1x but easy compact gearing and two sets of wheels, Hunt super wide with gravel tyres and 35mm deep carbon hoops with road 30mm tyres for the commuting, easy days and some Bikepacking. It’s so comfortable and looks great. While I love my Canyon Ultimate for strictly fast road, my Lynskey is like a multi tool of a bike that changes character as I need. My forever other bike - I’ll just upgrade the components over the years.

[@bassmanbob2189]

I have a 2021-2022 Vamoots disc RSL which I absolutely love. I ordered it when Moots first introduced the CRD. Looking back, I wish I asked what the difference was between the two models. My Moots rep told me the CRD would be better for more imperfect roads. But being from SE Florida, our roads are pretty smooth, and I do little to no gravel riding. You mentioned the CRD allows for 32mm tires. I got my RSL with 30mm tires and recently replaced them with 32’s with no clearance problems. I got my Moots at 57 years old and hope to keep riding this bike into my 80’s! The honeymoon is not yet over. I get a smile every time I swing my leg over the saddle.

[@SignorLuigi]

Such a lovely bike. Out of my price range but I'm glad companies like Moots have an audience for their products. I love titanium as a material for a bike frame and I own a titanium bike from another builder based in Tennessee, USA. It has a more traditional set-up with external cables, rim brakes, things like that. It does have a T47 bottom bracket though! But that actually suits my needs and preferences better. I didn't get a titanium bike because of some supposedly magical ride quality although I love the way my bike feels and responds when I ride. I got it because I wanted a fuss free bike that I could ride in all conditions without fear of damaging the frame or finish. I also got it because I love great craftsmanship. Sometimes I just look at the welds on my bike and smile a sweet smile. Granted, as sweet as it is, it is still only a smile a mother could love. 🤣

I’ve owned a Litespeed Classic since late 1994 when the brand was still owned by the founders. It’s my go to bike though I also own a nice carbon Felt Z4 and a Steel All City Mr Pink. I replaced the original carbon fork on the Classic when my car was hit from the rear as the bike was on my trailer hitch travel rack in 1999. One of pedals punctured the radiator of the truck that hit me. No other damage to the bike besides the fork. The Litespeed is still going strong with updated wheels and new-ish SRAM 22 components. I have close to 80,000 miles on this bike after 29 years of fun on it all over Louisiana, Texas and the Colorado mountains. The ride is sublime and with a polished frame it is so easy to keep looking brand new.

To be fair, I do think it is established that Litespeed are the best in titanium frame making also having done it for the longest. They used to work with NASA if I am not mistaken. Their frames are actually a bit lighter than the one presented here and I believe builds are available for less money as well - though I appreciate that this is the silly money top spec you got here and all companies run those.

Sensible tire choices, well played. For those of us who are not at race weight and hammering down mountain passes, the larger rear rotor is a good idea. Especially given the weight difference is said to be 8-ish grams so about 1/8 the weight of a gel. Or the weight of eight gel wrappers. A small price to pay for the additional stopping power. Congrats on a solid result for this brutal event.

[@jorgedasilva6359]

Good bikes for sure. I've had a Litespeed Ghisallo since 2007 and it still looks as new.

Absolutely lovely. It makes me sad every day that I had to sell my only titanium bike many years ago. I've banged on over the last several years about bike prices and I stand by that. However, when you can customize geometry, ride quality, and everything else, it starts to feel a little more worth it. I still couldn't afford one and probably wouldn't spend that much even if I could, but it makes a lot more sense than spending that much for an off the shelf complete bike with basically zero options.

No doubt this is an amazing bike. I have fallen in love with Titanium bikes few years ago and searched for the perfect bike a long time. There are not many brands (I know of Moots, De rosa, Kocmo, Falkenjagd, No22) capable to build a bike with fully integrated cables. If I had enough money to not worry about, I would not choose a Moots. I would prefer a No22 made in NYC with 3D Ti stem and all matching finish.

[@pbandjosh]

Fully integrated cables is not any trick and is no different with Ti than other materials. They've put the cables inside the bearings and through the tubes. It's electronic groupset only so you don't have to worry about shift quality with the complex routing. There's nothing about Ti that makes it more complicated than any other bike, it's more a question of the fork which in this case is an ENVE carbon fork.

When a brand says something like 'certified US aerospace grade' it means it conforms to the strictest standards of testing of integrity. The cheaper sources of tubing tend not to meet those standards, which isn't to say that it's strictly necessary for bicycle application. From the outset the main US brands prided themselves in using certified aerospace grade Ti, one of the main ways that other brands entered at lower pricepoints is from finding alternative sources for tubing.

Why not weight? A fork is orders of magnitude more difficult to weld than a frame. And the shaping qualities of carbon are far more valuable on a fork, than the frame.

[@nikolaimikuszeit3204]

@@cjohnson3836 Hi, I said "weight" because it is clear that the carbon fork is lighter (though I learned from the second reply that it's not that much), but then so is the frame. So if I'd go for super weight-optimization a titanium frame is already the wrong place to start with. "Price" might be a reason in a general case, but not here. And to be honest, if I pay for a very expensive Ti bike, I'll have the extra money for the fork as well. So what I can see is: You are more limited in shape and geometry due to material properties and machining methods. So "aero", e.g. is probably not happening on Ti. I guess overall it would make more sense on a gravel or cross bike, right? What about handling/feel?
