This took a long time and initially dh and I both bought small frames-different colors and after some thought since we never ride together-I sent mine back:confused: :eek: :p :( :D :rolleyes: :mad: Some mixed emotion there....my pretty baby blue frame WAH!!! But it's OKAY....were the same size. We had the frame forever-sitting in it's box in the closet waiting on Biker Bob to get our build kit together. After a couple long months and getting it built.....it is together and gorgeous! Sadly, the weather has made it impossible to take to the trails and we've only been able to ride it out in the street lol:rolleyes: I still need to buy shoes but am totally looking forward to it. I am REALLY excited! Sorry for the goofy pics in our living room-we have kids;)

kids? is that what that is?
I find it interesting that you are going to share a bike. Let us know how that works out!

Sweet! Great bike! Plush fork, are those Avid brakes? Did you go with SRAM or Shimano?

A couple we know did the same thing - they were able to buy a much better bike to share for the less $$ than replacing both bikes. I think it has worked well for them. The kids are still young, but getting closer to being riders themselves, so I think (and hope) in a few years, they'll get another bike so they can all ride together.

Even though me and my DH have the same inseam, we do not comfortably ride the same sized bike, so it's a cool and rare thing when a couple can!

That is a rockin' hot bike! Even though I normally go for lighter colors (love the baby blue Titus color!), I really like the matte black, and obviously it's appropriate for either gender. Just don't let your DH go and wreck it so you are stuck without a bike -- or vice versa! :p

Titus bikes are great -- I have a Racer-X I bought on ebay this past summer, and it's wonderful! ENJOY!

Not sure I could share my MotoLite with anyone ( its mine all mine). However OH and I are completely different sizes anyway.

Its worth the wait. I have an older model in the same Fox Talas grey but I have the old style garish decals and I need to get me some of the new ones as they are much more subtle (as here):

I'm kind of cheating on my ML with my hardtail at the minute but the trails are pretty wet so I'm protecting her really :D

Titus bikes are fab and they have really started to make an impact here in the UK which is great for sourcing parts as I had to do it direct from US before

Here's an update...this is too small for me and I'm getting my own-med frame needed...but I'm trying to decide between Ellsworth Truth or Epi...not too sure on having a bike with a non adjustable fork....was initially going for Truth, now I'm torn....
