1996 Litespeed Obed

Welcome to my first ever titanium framed bike ! I picked this up a while ago but have only just got round to making a start on it. I was impressed with the weight straight away and they do oooooze quality.

I'm going to go with xtr 950 on it , bit of syncros kit , forks ...not too sure yet. I've got a few options at the moment. Looking forward to building this though.

Thats nice!
I have always wanted a Ti frame as well... especially a Litespeed like that!
One day...

Looks cool Chris

Cheers mr ship ! Your mayhem training sounds good to me mate , drinking tea and eating custard creams ! Perfect !

Just got back from my morning jog. I hope my mayhem captain appreciates all this effort !

Some more pic's of the Litespeed

I think the RC31's are very yummy but i also like the cool judy's and the carbon specialized fsx forks are something abit different. Decisions decisions !

That looks great Chris, really liking the way your putting this together.

Also pleased to here that your training for Mayhem! Your Captain is very proud and promises to flog you like a donkey all weekend

Put a king headset on and tried the Judy's and Carbon FSX . The steerer is too short on the FSX so can't use them on this. I think the Judy's look pretty good.

Both forks look good Woody, i'd go with the best handling pair if it was my choice.
