Description:You've been invited on a ride. You don't know the trail. You don't know
the people. You're not even sure where the ride is. Will it be a
hammerfest? Will they take you on the most technical ride you've ever done?
Who Cares! You're on a Moto-Lite. It's the bike you've been waiting for.
Custom Ti or Exogrid: In addition to 4 aluminum sizes,
you can order your Moto-Lite in custom sizes too!

Bottom Line:
Am loving this bike. Have had some beautiful bikes in my time. This just leaves me grinning ear to ear. Love the way in which it climbs, the rare end is unbelievably stiff. This thing decends like a possessed thing, it is fantastic in tight single track..
Yep it is deemed super expensive, am a firm believer in you get what you pay for, if you can afford this frame, you will not be dissapointed.

Strengths:
The Titus Moto Lite Exogrid is the best all-mountain, all-conditions, no-compromise mountain bike I have ever ridden in my 12 years of riding and racing (expert class) in Colorado. The rider specific geometry and the pro-pedal shock enable it to climb steep singletrack better than a hard-tail. And with 5" of available rear travel, it can handle the big hits with ease. However, the best feature of this bike is the frame. The Ti/Carbon Fiber Exogrid technology makes this frame light, tortionally rigid and super suple. The result is impressive. Point this bike into a steep technical decent and it will roll with ease. I have never been so confident about my decending skills as I am since I started riding a Titus Loco Moto Exogrid.
Weaknesses:
Price is definitely on the high side...but if you can afford it, you will not be dissappointed.
