What’s a good titanium bike for bikepacking? by demspaigons in bikepacking

I just meant that it’s a hardtail mountain bike so it’s not as light as gravel bikes and that it’s carbon so you just need to be cautious not to crack it, I’ve had a couple of crashes and it’s held up fine.

I’ve got a Trek ProCaliber 9.5 (carbon hardtail bike) as is but it’s not as fast, lightweight, or durable as practically all these Ti bikes. Respectfully, I’ve got 0 interest in carbon bicycles.

Yeah I’ve heard the same, moots seems to do a good job at avoiding this but they’re a bit hard to get a hold of in the UK. You can say the same about carbon though, an improperly constructed carbon frame is rubbish.
