This has to be one of the most professionally produced videos I've seen from you. What a breath of fresh air! Now we need more videos 😝 Love the blooper at the end btw! 👌🏼
Just found your channel and I'm super stoked on what your doing! I ride an aluminum RSD Middlechild for the same reasons you chose your Switchback frame, and I dream of one day upgrading to the ti version. Sick to see you putting it through its paces, keep it up!
Well done Dan!!! Titanium has something magical. I've always wanted to have a ti frame. I am doubting whether to change my steel stanton sherpa gen 3 frame for the titanium version or purchasing the switch9r ti version... really nice bike!!
I finished up my Ti hardtail for riding the same Florida trails. I built a why cycles El Jefe with Ti bars and the same EEwings. AXS and Magura bits and DVO fork.
I like titanium. That is why I had a US frame builder make me a road frame using titanium. That is why my bars, stem, and seatpost are made from titanium. That is why every fastener I used to build the bike up is titanium. I am currently looking for a builder that offers a titanium fork to replace the ENVE fork. And when the Dura-Ace cranks break I am going with the E-Wings crankset too. Chris King used to offer a titanium headset. I wish he would offer those again because the sweat ruins the aluminum headsets. Yeah, I really love titanium.
depends on your budget. like if I only waited till I could get a TI bike I wouldn't even have one.. as it were the best bike I have is a TREK 7300fx with a disc mod and surly fork.. the 4130 brodie bolt is pretty good too. Chromoly.. Molybdenum..? spelled correct? we talking space rocks man
People also ask Why do elements have ium at the end? It's no accident that so many elements in the table end in -ium, for example, because this suffix was settled on as an indicator for metals (which make up the majority of elements)
I am looking for a bike that climbs really well. How does this bike climb? Is there anything about titanium that makes a bike a better climber? Other than it being lighter. Compared to a carbon frame for example?
Hardtails arguably are alway excellent at climbing. More direct and consistent power gets transferred to the tire. And of course the light weight properties are a plus. But the material has little to do with a bikes or riders climbing ability. I don’t know of anyone who has been disappointed with a ti bike purchase. ✌️
Well to clarify there is two different types of titanium in the bike industry. I think is 3/2 and 6/4 this one been the most hard and more expensive. I had a litespeed hard tail I think it was the pisgah model. Love titanium. Omg, why seat post so low? Don’t they have minimum and max insertion? Big Nono my friend. Don’t insert the post all the way down!
Hal pertama yg terpikir mengingat nama Stanton adalah Jimmy Jib, yeah karena i'm a cameraman. titanium emang keren , inikah yg membuat anda menjadikan dream build stanton switchback 631 sekitar 2 tahun yg lalu sebagai giveaway di Instagram?
