Have you ever considered the different ways you can save weight on your bike? If you have, you have undoubtedly looked into what you could run on your bike with Titanium parts instead of Chromoly. This weeks Tech Tip from Profile Racing takes a look at the caparison when it comes to weight and which material you should be running.
As many of you know, Titanium is quite a bit lighter than Chromoly. Above is a comparison of Profile Racing axles and bolts in Chromoly and Titanium showing you the difference.

The crew at Profile released their latest Tech Tip which compares the two materials in weight and the pros and cons of each. You can check it out right here — Tech Tip: Weight, What?
