vanox rails

how do they compare to titanium?

it looks like Terry changed their Ti saddles to Vanox rails.

They appear to be close to the same. I notice they flex a little more than Ti. They are on my Airione.

The price of Ti is sky-high right now, a lot of people swapped out their rails this year. Fizik too, with their "k:ium" rails, which is their fancy name for their rails. They claim they're lighter though.

Personally, I've never really been able to feel rail flex, for me it's the stupid reason that titanium is better in my mind, so that's what I want. I have an SLR with Vanox, and one with the tubular ti rails, and I really don't feel the difference.
