This bikes look sick but I cannot find anything about them. You would think ST would be the place for info for something like this.

Is there any reason why the great titanium manufactures never created bikes with this style of geometry. This is where tri bikes are right now and this Fenix II looks awesome. Should I be concerned that this bike is flimsy or lacks what a traditionally bike geometry is built to have?

The titanium P3 lookalike was mentioned a few years ago. Looks a gorgeous frame, although I would imagine an absolutely hellishy difficult thing to weld.

Looks beautiful.

Soul bikes is based in my country, Singapore. He has been in business for awhile now, I think at least ten years? started out as a wheelbuilder using generic hubs and kinlin rims, but now has his own rim shapes that he designs himself .

His 30mm and 40mm alloy wheelsets are quite popular locally, and are good value if you take care of your equipment. They are also relatively cheap and have good quality. I own a set of the 30s myself. his wheels were recently reviewed here:

As for his background: The brother in law knows him personally and he is trained as an architect, and now designs most of his own stuff. His dad, a mechanical engineer, helps to certify all his designs before production. He has been working on a couple of CF prototypes (seen some local teams testing them) . NO aero testing claimed , but that's pretty unrealistic for a small setup run out of his own house.


Why titanium bikes have not created this style of geometry: They have. litespeed and Guru used to make these. Not anymore. demand for an titainium TT bike isn't very high, sadly.

His name is Sean, correct? From what I have heard he is very good about responding to email if the OP has any questions for him. Another option if you (OP) are looking for a Ti TT frame might Everti which is based out of Canada.

Thanks, but it's not like I'm searching for a Ti TT frame. I just happened to run across it on the net and found it interesting. Like I said: I love metal (currently I have an alu TT bike and a steel road bike)

Hi,

I went to Soul Bikes website and it shows that they make custom Ti frames. I am really interested in a Ti bike and wonder what ST thinks about the Fenix 2 frame in a road geometry?

Did you ever get the Fenix II?
