Titanium bikes: how they are made and why you might want one

Why would you choose the wonder metal for your next frame?

Titanium is the metal of choice for many aerospace applications. It’s half the weight of steel for a tube of the same tensile strength and twice as strong as aluminium alloy. Titanium is also more resistant to fatigue and impact than aluminium alloys, so it copes better with bumps and bashes. Titanium bikes are highly prized, if a niche item compared to aluminium and carbon framesets.

 

Bluejay Mining’s Dundas Ilmenite project (previously known as the Pituffik Titanium Project) is an advanced stage titanium project, which has been proven to be the highest-grade mineral sand ilmenite project globally, with an initial Inferred JORC resource of 23.6Mt at 8.8% ilmenite (in situ), including a high-grade zone equal to 7.9Mt at 14.2% ilmenite.
