Thank you, Juliette. I have decided on titanium and I have been looking at Airborne, but I felt the same way your brother did. I am happy to hear he got one and loves it. It seems Airborne is looked down upon somewhat, the reviews I have read say they are great bikes and people who buy them seem to love them.
I think it mut be some kind of snob factor, they are titanium and are under 3 thousand bucks so we think they aren't any good.
Obviously they are.
