I don't think so. Here are some of my latest and older builds...
1. Touring bike by TITAN cycles with Pinion P1.18 gear box (636% overall gear ratio, 18 real gears 11.5% extra fine & evenly graded), S&S couplers, Gates carbon drive belt and internal cable routing. This bike is pretty much maintenance free and fits in check-in size baggage case. BTW, SRAM XX1 Eagle has only 500% overall gear ratio...
2. Lynskey Custom Level 4 Triathlon/TT racing machine. Not crazy aero as new carbon TT monsters but good enough to leave many of them well behind. Shown with training wheels...
3. Lynskey full suspension 27.5-140
Thanks very much for all responses and my apologies to all I couldn't respond directly. I'm VERY glad that titanium bikes are still holding strong and discovered a lot of new names and very interesting frames. Thanks a lot for shearing. Posting below a list of titanium builders mentioned in this thread. Hopefully this list will grow. Stay tuned...
So is art of titanium frame building dead? What do you think? Is titanium bike still alive? Show your ride...
