Title speaks to the reason for this post. If I approach Ernie with enough show of hands, maybe we can swing him to do a Titanium run of KLR’s. I have approached him about this request once already and he was quite receptive to it.
My guess is they would be about the same cost as all the other Titanium throws, but I’m not going to say for sure. It’s certainly a question I will put to him.
Let’s see who would be potential buyers if he were to roll the dice and make a small run of
Ti-KLR’s.
I could go for that, but I would right this second go for a raw(well, clear sealed) KLR and would gladly pay for it it and have it shipped to my house right this very second. Or, I could wait until I’m in the region in November, drive to his place of business and pick up the item from him, but I’d have no issue paying for it now.
That would seriously be the best thing ever. I’ve tried pretty much all the “best” yoyos out there and to me nothing surpasses the KLR. And a Ti version… oh my goodness.
The design would have to be tweaked to take advantage of the properties of titanium, of course, but it’s basically a great idea. It’d be like a KLR but could take a crazy amount of abuse. Like the ultimate 5a yoyo, anyone? It’d be sad to take a yoyo that cool and baby it. I have a titanium yoyo and they can handle brushes against concrete no problem. That’s one of their best features.
Nah shape wouldn’t be good at all for Ti imo. Way too thick and chunky. The point of Ti is the have weight distribution not possible with aluminum, i don’t really see any benefit to a Ti KLR other than a status throw, which i guess is what most Ti throws are anyway. That’s what made the Ti5 great, that crazy thin rim.
