Mail-order company H & S Bike Discount is entering the titanium business with a price scoop. H & S boss and titanium fan Chris Stahl fulfils a dream. The visually successful "Titanium 7.0" (Russian production) offers impressive equipment for 2,599 euros and even allows for special requests such as luggage rack eyelets or V-brake mounts. The geometry appears unbalanced for the size due to the slack seat angle and short wheelbase. However, when riding - as with most models - the titanium-like lateral frame flex is more noticeable. It's like being transported back to the 90s in a time machine.
CONCLUSION: affordable titanium bike for sharp calculators. Also available for 1999 euros in the "XT" version or for 3499 euros in the "XTR" version.
