But rather that ti will react with air at high temperatures. So you need to weld it in a sealed chamber with a different gas. But then at lower temps it is super stable. So there would be no need for paint. It doesn't corrode at all I think. -- feel the light ------------------------------------------------------------------------ feel the light's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14551 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64220 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Wow, that is a beautiful frame! Any chance of them making a 26"/29"/36" version? I'm definitely up for one if it can be produced.

feel the light wrote: So there would be no need for paint. It doesn't corrode at all I think. Correct, no need for paint. Incorrect, it does corrode, just like aluminum and steel. However, for alu and ti, the corrosion forms what is called a "passivation layer"; only the top layer of the metal oxidizes, forming a hard, (mostly) clear protective layer, protecting the underlying metal. Anodization simply thickens this naturally occuring passivation layer through an electrochemical process. When steel corrodes, it forms pits on the surface and a thick layer of rust that flakes off. However, when mixed with chromium ("stainless steel") the chromium forms this passivation layer for it, preventing rusting. -- onelesscar Catching the coker fever. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ onelesscar's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11127 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64220 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I love it when good design meets good craftsmanship! When I first looked at the frame I thought the plate under the seat-tube might cause problems with creating compressed air/vacuum when inserting or removing the seatpost but then I realized it was a brainfart and that seatposts are hollow and it would be a non issue. I also realized that by removing that hollow space you likely just increased the lateral stiffness of the frame. That frame looks awesome! I don’t do much trials but if it came in a size suitable for a 26X3 GAZZ wheelset I would be very interested in getting one.
