Titus is defined by their unwavering commitment to technology. It shows most famously in their Exogrid series of bikes -- Ti frames whose laser-cut, carbon-reinforced tubes possess the futuristic sex appeal normally reserved for F1 cars and fighter jets. And while there's something to be said for beauty, Titus is concerned first and foremost with performance. While you marvel at the look of an Exogrid tube, the folks at Titus would rather tell you about its function -- about how an Exogrid tubeset makes a bike 40% torsionally stiffer than a standard Ti bike, while making it 15% more compliant.

Technology is more than just about tubesets. It comes in the form of suspension design, such as Titus' use of a strut-style Horst linkage instead of a rocker-based approach. It's why Titus uses carbon fiber linkages and seatstays. It's why they believe in hydroforming aluminum tubing and evaluating every last detail in their frames all the way down to dropout design. The attention to detail is everywhere on a Titus. Sticklers -- prepare to be satisfied!

While Titus is perhaps best-known for their ability to mate lovely design work with razor-sharp engineering, they deserve equal attention for the way in which their technology trickles down to all price points. The suspension design so elemental to the fantastic ride of the Racer X Exogrid is identical to what you get on the aluminum version. Same goes for the Moto Lite -- what you get suspension-wise on the tip-top of the high end is no different from what you find on the aluminum Moto Lite. The ride quality of a Titus encompasses a whole lot more than its frame material, and you'll be thrilled with what you buy no matter the size of your wallet.
