Good looking bike, you got there. I wish I bought one when they were being blown out. Perfect gravel rig for my needs.

One has to wonder, right? I did speak with Steve a few months ago and we said the frame and box of parts were right in front of him so I'm assuming yes.

Anyone else on a ti Bixxis?
I have my eye on this builder for my next bike. Don't currently have a titanium frame in the mix.

Spectrum Ti

Started as rim brake mechanical road bike, built in 2003, originally belonged to forum pal Ray, sold to v531xc, went through several hands, ended up with me as the final owner and I made sure it will stay that way by making various "modifications" to the frame: crimped the stays to widen tire clearance to 700x40 or 650bx45, "converted" to disc using a homemade disc tab rear
mount + fork, di2 external wiriing "velcro is your friend".

Under different ownership...

Ray
--> v531xc
--> Bicycletricycle
--> Clean39t
--> Me

It probably looks the most handsome when Clean has it...


And now, I turned it into a jack of all trades

My first Ti bike. Serotta Fondo originally from bikerboy337 here on PL now on the West Coast. No significant changes made so far.

Getting used to the feel compared to a Cervelo RS; new bike feels much quicker handling--not sure how much is the frame vs the wheels (new one with carbon vs alloy). It does seem to accelerate faster; haven't weighed yet but is likely slightly lighter.

Just received this last week. Had it built by Walty Ti. Very very satisfied with it, but having an issue with shifting (unrelated to frame) so it's back apart. I'll get better pictures once it's together again

You would be right. I confirmed with Steve that Bingham does his Ti bikes. Wait time is only 6 months...

My Firefly 275 build. Got this one out for it's first proper ride yesterday, but no action shots as I forgot my phone at the house before leaving for the ride. Very impressed with the bike. Stable, fast and comfortable! Should stick around for a bit!
