If it was my bike, I'd stainless (or standardise) it, or use titanium in high stress areas.

Titanium bolts kill threads, aluminium bolts get their heads mashed, and both corrode - good old stainless steel all the way for me!

Hmm, if it were red or blue anodising then it would be better, but purple is better than polished IMO Thumbs Up

Hi

Go for standard for stainless steel. Not keen on anodised alloy stuff at all.

All the best
