• I'm looking into building my first mtb. Titanium would be my first choice of frame material, steel being second. However I have no knowledge of titanium manufacturers, nor much of mtb frames in general for that matter. Would you guys be able to recommend me some affordable titanium frame brands?

  • Moots.

    Why Ti? It's nice, I have one, but the advantages over nice steel aren't great and you pay a good deal more for it.

    What type of MTB are you looking to buid? XC whippet, all rounder, AM / Freeride...? Ti tends to push you towards the former or hardcore hardtails in the later.

  • Most definitely hardtail. XC and possibly longer endurance rides in quite flat terrains. Not even sure if I will find much need for suspension forks.
