You say aluminum is too stiff and brittle? You say you want a more comfortable XC bike that you can hammer all day? You want your Truth to last forever? You say steel is real...heavy? Welcome to the TiRuth, baby! Solid, light and comfy are the lasting attributes of the TiRuth. All US made Aerospace Certified Drawn Seamless 3AL/2.5V titanium tubing is used in this proprietary production technique in the beautiful south, where the Blue Ridge Mountains, Smokies and Appalachians tease your undulating desires, inspiring the proudest craftsmanship.
The TiRuth shares geometry and 4" of Instant Center Tracking, Horst link rear suspension, making for a light bike you can ride all day. I recommend everyone try a titanium frame and the ICT suspension design at least once in their lives. The TiRuth will nail both these birds with one stone. Cast away for the this work of art produced by the science of wrench.
