I'll keep the carbon assembly paste in mind but the frame has a double seatpost bolt which might help with that. Coming from non-os steel tubes, Max tubing is very stiff in my world. No can do on the TI crankset, that place is reserved for a mavic starfish, a part which I'm sure you have the utmost admiration for ;)

We have pneumatic tyres for that, although if it's an old school steel frame it's not actually going to be very stiff compared with modern carbon or aluminium bikes.
FWIW, due to the hardness of both materials, I had a fair amount of difficulty getting my Ti seat post to stay put in my steel frame, but that was about a hundred years before Tacx carbon assembly paste, which might work in that application. Also, #tartmode alert, my bike with the Ti stem and Ti seat post also has Ti cranks - go big or go home :)
