I’m buying it out of general principle. And I rode home with Ian who said he’d never speak to me again if I didn’t buy it.
We are probably going to have to bike joust over this sweet piece of bike and I’ve been training.

ParticipantPLEASE BUY IT!
Jokes aside, I didn’t catch your post. You clearly have first dibs. And, hozn deserves a pound of my finest home roasted coffee for being a gentlemen of extraordinary deals (if he’s at all into coffee).

Whoah!!! I don’t know if I said that! I just had forgotten you were also freakishly tall like Judd! When you stepped off your bike yesterday to help me out out a lightbulb went off! Plus you mentioned you had no bikes made out of titanium YET!

It sounded like something Ian would say. Bonus points for believability.

ParticipantHozn was kind enough to let me take his bike out for a spin yesterday in the rain. I’m buying it
It was my first time riding a titanium frame, a one by drivetrain and tubeless tires. The frame is very light. Similar to my carbon frame. It also had a nice smooth ride. Cruised right over trail bumps and felt good on the C&O and Georgetown Branch Trail.
I’m likely going to copy the setup Hans had since I liked how good the bike felt. I’ll change the stem angle though since Hans had it set at Monstorcross champion angle and I prefer inflexible lumberjack angle.

ParticipantWhew! Thank you. Saved me some cash and “problem” of having another bike. I would have to had suffer the embarrassment of adjusting it for the overweight and inflexible posture anyway.
Roasted up a pound of Burundi Mutambu Rubanda yesterday for hozn. Who I assume, drinks coffee, own’s and operates a grinder, and acceptable brewing apparatus.

Wow, I don’t know what I did to deserve that, but thanks!

ParticipantI know I am late to the party (I have been cleaning mud out of EVERYTHING), but Hozn, if you happen to accidentally buy a 54cm titanium cross/gravel frame and need to get rid of it… 😎
I am super excited for Judd. That is going to be a sweet setup. Now… come ride ALL the gravel with me!

I’m pretty much required to race cross this year. Gonna need lots of help.

And by “lots of help” you mean “lots of beer handups,” right?

YES! I could also use “lots of help” on my commute home if someone wants to hang out at HP with a cooler.

Did you notice if anyone bothered to use fenders? All the pics I’ve seen show everyone with the mud stripe straight up their back, chest, and face. I would’ve at least fashioned up a large Evian/Deer Park fender for the front by cutting it in half!
BTW, if you’re new to mountain biking, this is a HUGE NONO on public trails. However, the Bakers Dozen (where this pic was taken) happens on a private farm in Leesburg, and apparently they don’t mind the bikers roosting mud on their property. NEVER ride muddy trails in parks because it destroys trails and there are lots of volunteers that put in a lot of time to design, build, and fix them (including Sunyata and Dane in the pic).
Do whatev’s on privately-owned trails, but you might want to get permission first
