Stiffness is a factor, but my thought was moreso for weight. Seems a good compromise between the weight of aluminum and the strength of steel. Of course, I didn't think much of any specific bike or anything. Just a vague notion that if I cracked my carbon frame, I probably wouldn't want to get another one right away. Never rode a titanium bike so figure to try something new.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
