I've posted a few bits in the Titanium thread but feel I shouldn't really clog up that thread anymore!

I've recently picked up my custom Sturdy Cycles Titanium bike and details of the build and pics are below. The frame uses custom 3D Printed Titanium junctions to improve stiffness, reduce weight and improve custom fit options.

Frame: Sturdy Cycles Road Race
Fork: Enve Road Disk
Headset: Hope Integrated
Bottom Bracket: C-Bear T-47 Ceramic
Groupset: Shimano Dura Ace 9170 Di2
Stem: Enve Carbon
Bars: Pro Vibe Superlight Carbon Di2
Post: Moots Cinch Post
Saddle: Specialized Power Pro Carbon
Wheels: Lightbicycle WR38, DT Swiss 240, CX Ray Spokes
Tyres: GP 5000s
Cages: King Cage Iris
Spacers: Sturdy Titanium

Weight is 7.35kg
