So I've hopefully bagged myself a Brodie ti holeshot, question is do I ride it any different to my bfe now? I'm not casing any gap jumps/6ft drops so I'm assuming just mince how I currently mince?
Can/should I want to roll down any FOD dh will I die?
Do I need any extra materials when building? Is carbon paste on the seat post still ok?

My beard is coming along nicely btw!

It should be ridden with an air of arrogance.

Don't forget to mention it is titanium to anyone in earshot at the start/end of every run.

Ti frames are too beautiful and shiny to be ridden...just hang it on a wall and gaze longingly at it all day instead 😉
