many of our guys are similar size and have tried the different models. We are about 50 miles SE of London so good riding. They find the Stainless stiffer as well. The founder of our company rides an HSS/Spirit tubeset. Loves it more than the titanium or stainless we do.

Like I said, I had one guy in Wisconsin talk to 6 different builders in the US who do steel, titanium AND stainless. Every single one said go with titanium first, steel second and stainless third. I know the list and have spoken to them also. They don't like working with it. The expense, the difficulty working with WELDED, not lugged like Kirk, welded is really tough. Add into it stiffer, they prefer regular steel or titanium over Stainless.
