No! Black steel frame with ti truss fork, it'd looks lovely.. black parts with silver hubs to go with it, class. There's a blue steel diamond with a ti truss on MTBR that also looks great.
But no good if you're after the fat front.
I read the Jones was only any good for riding on fireroads once.
stu, i might not as I'd hate to be an attention whore so maybe a nice safe gt or trek will stop me looking odd and standing out in a crowd.
Ade/Druid, good to see more brands using Ti XX44 then..

JohnClimber,give me your Jones,and I will have your babies.
Errrr NO..
With fat front option
Old shot when it had gears
tazz.
Whatever you get make sure it's got plenty of that expension stuff on the back and the front.
That way you'll be safe to take it up the canal with out the danger of being exposed to any kind of roughness on the ground.
I have new thing coming.
Might have to run a competition to "ride Brants bikes whilst he has shoulder surgery". In on the 22nd. :-/
it doesn't have those silly slack aangles does it?
Pretty sure lynskey pro is 44mm headset to.
Lovely looking bikes here.
There's no short stay / XX44 HT / 120-140mm fork Honza-Canfield style bike in Ti that I'm aware of, Brant are you filling that void? Someone should.
Someone should.
You're not wrong there.
The back end on this thing is a little harsh to say the least.

I'd love a Ti version of it to be available as a production frame.
Been musing the slack HA/Short CS/Big fork thing for a while.Would have had a nimble 9 if Si still brought them in.Might have to have a word with the 18 boys.Any thoughts Mr Richards?
The v2 version of my bike has chain stays 407-417 that's centre to centre
Head angle 70 with 100 mm fork 68 with 140
Bb height 300 100 mm fork to 314 with 140 fork
Would have had a nimble 9 if Si still brought them in
I think CTBM is now importing the N9.
Edit.
Yep he is.

Go on then, spill the beans. Although the fact that I've expressed an interest inevitably means it'll never happen - as per the x-lite forks and something else I wanted desperately but now can't remember...
Still loving it. Shame they stopped doing them.
There's a proto xx44 slack / 425-ish CS steel frame on it's way to me soon as a project bike, it has a trick up it's sleeve. A ti version would be nice, if it works out.
425-ish CS
how is that measured?
properly, or horizontally?
Why titanium?
Why titanium?
because it doesn't explode in evil little black shards as soon a stone hits it or it feels like it and metal feels much nicer than string and glue 
yahboosucks
Properly rather than rear-centre. I expect there'll be some less-than-perfect clearances with some gearing combos, it's just a try-out frame.
that Charge Cooker Ti frame is £1599 seemingly ouch 
plus tapered head tube so I'd have to get new forks - bummer 
The Qoroz looks even better value now
Go for the Qoroz, you won't regret it! Fast, nimble and easy on the eye...
'string and glue'.......PMSL 
i've put the order in for your group buy of wibbly rings keefy
good man.can't do tomora btw,sorry.
me neither 
may sneak out for a sunday afternoon/evening bimble in cannockshire though
usual place/time sundee,bimble on,if you fancy it.....
will be collectin some steel contraption with some common surname on it what rhymes with phones in the mornin.
pah,they're pap,I've had that on good authority
How you doing Mr Tazzy, ive been trawling the classifieds for a second hand mojo, but cant see one anywhere??
i'm very well fankyou mr slapp, don't worry about mojo, with the silly workloads, lurgey and the like we are all riding at particularly slow pace at the moment. in fact the other day i was overtaken by a snail carrying heavy shopping going uphill.
just come and play, I promise I won't let you crash into any more trees
Had an xray on the offending shoulder recently and the doc says ligament damage which needs exercise. Can you recommend any activity which incorporates such a thing?
ouch Mr Slapp I'm just recovering from a dislocated knee back on the bike now so getting there
sending healing vibes fella and don't do too much of chocking the chicken 
Unfortunately Pete I appear to have pulled the head off the chicken, but the shoulder seems to be improving.
You seem to have recovered pretty well from your injury and you're on a 29er as well.
