Show me your mixed materials bikes!



Posted in the custom gallery as well, hope that is fine.

my Srrotta Ottrott XC...only a couple were ever made, I bought it from a forum member years ago, originally built for 26” wheels, I converted to 27,5” ztr’s on dt hubs als am very happy...I foolishly passed on the occasion to acquire its road-going sister from the same forumite

I really do feel that the combination of ti and carbon contribute significantly to the way it rides...laterally stiff, yet vertically compliant

Hey..... I forgot about this thread. I can legitimately play now. Here's my recently picked up Lemond "spine bike" Versailles. I've only got this pic of it right now but it's totally different now. Upgraded most components to Dura Ace while swapping on a FSA SLK Triple Crankset with Wickwerks Chainrings. Pulled off the heavy Bontrager wheels on put on some light and wind November Nimbus Ti wheels. Can't wait for spring and a chance to test this out.



Steel and Carbon Fiber....

Errrr, no.

One of the nicest race bikes ever manufactured, but Scandium frame, carbon fork only. Any hint of carbon on chainstays/seatstays is carbon wrapped, a crazy 'lil thing they used to do occasionally.
