rightt thurrrr.
Theres a reason why chrome moly 4130 is used in our type of sports (BMX), its because its whats best suited to what we do, people have already done the science, chrome moly is the best suited.
Its the way to go.

Titanium is strong for it's weight.
Not but it's still light.
Chromo is the best for bars.

your kind of wrong zane. Chromoly is used over Titanium pretty much solely for the fact titanium is expensive in comparison

 

[Dom Marconi]

Dude, titanium is hardly any stronger than aluminum...
It also has different properties, it's not what is meant for making bars.

A scooter has not form of shock absorbtion. The urethane wheels are to hard. Bike tires run on air, which provides a little bit of shock absorbtion. And all those titanium bike parts are made for racing about 90% of the time. Eastern even gave out a warning on their titanium bars that said " If you bend chromoly bars easily, do not buy titanium bars." Titanium is just too brittle for the amount of abuse that scooters would put on the material. Search, this already a thread with all the arguments of why this idea is a bad idea.

Ti is only used in racing parts.
