So, do you have any thoughts on whether you’re just sticking w/ numbering, or are you doing art for engravings?

I’m liking the looks. Never thought Ti looked so good :wink: Especially w/ a VsNYYC taste.

One more question, out of curiosity, why did you decide to make the rims thinner width-wise? Just a random thought 🙂

The answer is obvious to you, but I see a whole different way to go about the weight dilemma.

If I may:  
“Titanium is around 6 to 8 times stronger than Al. this means weight where you want it design wise. walls can go crazy thin without losing durability.”

If you were willing to keep the same design, could you not make the walls thin where the rims would have been? For aesthetics?

That was the reason I asked the question. I was simply curious.

EDIT: Let me make that a bit clearer. If you were to adjust the rims to be the same once again, would it not make since that, if they were thin, it wouldn’t add a tremendous amount of weight, maybe 1 gram.

Not taking a shot at you or anything. As I said, curiosity gets the better of me.

the new design also adds a usable IRG. the weight distribition is as close as what is reasonable for Ti while offering differences to the shape i thought were good. your first explanation statement is a direct copy and paste from something ive already said on this forum…

That was the point. there was a reason it was in quotations.

Like I said, I’m loving the look. It was in no way a bash against you or your designs. I trust your judgement, but, again, curiosity gets the better of me.
