Titan Racing Bikes

You called? 😎

What are you planning to use it for?

🤐 😎

Yes, we will have bikes spec'ed with this new groupset. The first ones should arrive in Q1 2024.

Let me check for you.

👌👌👌

Hi, Unfortunately sold out everywhere. New stock arrives next month. We'll update you here.

I'll check for you in the morning and get back to you.

Soon... 😈

Apologies, we're a bit slow today. (Does "out riding" count as a valid excuse..?) As said by Chris, it is the same yes.

Not too far off...

Thanks 👊

They will, yes.

It seems we are in good company...

Cool idea. Let's see if we can make it happen. For now, if ever there is uncertainty anyone can just drop us a DM here or an email and we'll happily reply with the required info.

Seems you can eat your cake and have it...

You're a poet and you don't even realize it! 😎 And yes, there's no cypher here, our prices will remain as sharp as a scalpel. Even for the lefties among us.

Our marketing team should probably come up with a clever acronym for the new logo with a flashy PowerPoint presentation on how the slanted "A" encourages the movement of air over the rear triangle, and how the new logo is 10% smaller representing a 5-second saving at 400watts, BUT, they're probably out riding new bikes. 😎

Hi Barry, This is the second time, each time it was done to represent a major and important milestone in our history and future. The first time was when we went from TITAN to TITAN RACING. This was a big one for us as it was done to signify our move from using open molds to our own molds and bike designs. Cliff Beckket joined and brought with him a wealth of design knowledge and experience. The Cypher was launched soon after and has gone on to do extremely well for us. We also got our teeth stuck in the South African racing scene. Part to support local talent, part to put our bikes to the test in extreme South African conditions, and part to show it can be done on a Titan Racing bike. A couple of years later and any given Sunday you will find a Titan Racing rider on a podium in South Africa, Mauritius or Coast Rica. We have since launched several new models, the most recent being the Valerian Carbon. Designed, tested, and perfected in-house. This round is more of a refresh than a rebrand. Actually, it is exactly that. We're still TITAN RACING, but for the team working behind the scenes, this is a massive MARKER in the stand. We can't say too much at the moment, but the next couple of months will be big for us. (Deliberately replying to this after the reply to Barry) There are already GREAT deals going on our bikes, which were already the best value-for-money bikes on the market.

Hi Shantel, We may be biased 😎, so all we'll say on the topic is thanks for considering Titan Racing as one of the options. We'll let the Hubbers chime in with recommendations. Happy shopping and welcome to the wonderful world of mtb'ing. 👍

Not sure if it's been said, but most people are more familiar with car model years and how that gets used. In the auto industry, a car is the MY (model year) that it first gets registered, and when there is a mid-life update, we talk about pre- or post-facelift. Using the VW T-Cross as an example; in 2024 you will be able to buy a NEW MY24 VW T-Cross that is both "new" and "old" versions thanks to a mid-life facelift. It seems the general public somehow gets a bit confused here. Some, conveniently so! 😎 At Titan Racing, we have gone to a two-year model cycle, which means the MY22 and MY23 Cypher range is exactly the same. (Even though some shops use the model year it was first introduced, we're working to fix that. ) Santa Cruz only updated their frames every 3-5 years depending on the model, even the colors stay largely the same year-on-year the last time we checked. The same with Ibis. So there the MY model does not apply, what is more relevant is the year it was first bought as new. Unless of course the MY22 gets replaced with a new model (new molds) then a Ripley is not a Ripley anymore. Confusing, see?! Basically what we need is MY_XX and the year of first registration to have an idea of how old a bike really is.

That's good to know. Well, not great news, but now we know about this. We'll pass this on to the team to see what we can do as a permanent solution.

Hey Grant, Thanks for your interest in our bikes. With some super deals running at the moment, you should be able to pick up the Titan Racing Cypher Carbon Expert for that money. https://titanracingbikes.com/bikes/cypher-carbon-expert/ You said carbon, but also take a look at the alu Titan Racing Cypher Ltd Edition. It comes with a DT Swiss fork and shock, GX Eagle drivetrain, a dropper post, and great finishing kit. https://titanracingbikes.com/bikes/cypher-ltd-edition/ We will let other hubbers chip now. Happy shopping!

We can't give an opinion on the Evoc bag as we've never had it side by side with ours. But from experience, a L Cypher will fit in with no issues and you'll have space for extras. You can check it in as a bag, but due to the size, you'll have to drop it off at the oversize cargo window once checked in.
