Awaiting delivery of my new frame next week, first ti bike and looking forward to building it up. I have a few questions on parts I need to acquire however!
What diameter is the seatpost? The px website says 27.2, I’ve read a few reviews indicating it’s 31.6, but it doesn’t look like that from the pics
What’s the headset arrangement ? Looks like it’s an semi integrated 44 top and external 44 bottom cup. Can someone confirm?

Yup, 27.2 as of the v4 frame, they were 31.6 prior to that. Spot on re headset
Nice one thanks
No prob. FWIW the headset top I used was a hope
1.1/8", ZS44/28.6 - Type 2.
Lovely frame (and bike!) btw, very much miss mine!
Only thing to add is that my Ti Spitfire shipped without the under BB cable guide, I got a couple of spares from Amazon for a fiver.
PX part is here - Cable guide
Oh, and don't forget to buy a steerer bung !
Guessing you have bought Frame only? Decided on the rest of the spec yet?
I have the Campag EKAR build. Took a while but I’m loving it now. Have road wheels and gravel wheels. I’ve not rode enough pure gravel rides, but the mixed rides I’ve done have been awesome.
Ive swapped the seatpost, stem and bars for carbon ones. The road wheels are 1400gram 38mm deep rims. Looks ace now….but I am tempted to get some Hunt 54mm wheels for road duty and use the 38mm wheels for summer gravel.
