TI Rush

Dr. Duk said:

Received my brand spanking new TI Rush this past Wednesday, June 2. What a beautiful bike. It was well worth the 11 week wait.
This Bent is the ultimate in riding and performance from my perspective. One can feel the difference in the ride and handling within the first mile of riding. It lives up to its reputation. I have been riding a TE and decided to upgrade to the TI Rush over this past winter. Can't wait to put some miles on this Baby. This is a BEAUTIFUL machine. THANKS EasyRacer!

I understand it has been a number of years ago since your purchased your Ti Rush. I would be interested in how it has performed for you over the years and what accessories you have added along the way. I would be most interested in what shifters you chose and whether you are pleased with your setup.

thanks ahead for your assistance.

Woww that sounds cool I want one....🙄

Thanks for your interest. Performance has been out of this world IMHO. She performs like Gardner stated she would. Miss Ti Lizzie will stay in stable until I am planted.
For accessories. Carbon Fairing, tailsox with a dozen change of colors and prints, Rotor Crank System, Hed 3 tri-spoke rear wheel and carbon fairing front wheel. Rapid fire shifters and I am very pleased with this set-up. Since I purchased Miss Ti-Lizzie there have been numerous improvements on shifters but until I have problems or they wear out I will keep what I have.

Dr. D. Thank you for your feedback. I am expecting my Ti Rush next week after putting 10,000 miles on my Bacchetta Corsa.

Do you have a recommendation on pedals?

I have Speedplay Frog pedals on each and everyone of my two wheel recumbents and three (3) Catrike trikes. Obviously, this is a personal choice but the Frogs work for me. 😄

Steve,
+2 bikes with Speedplay Frogs. Love 'em.
Tack.

"Are you kidding me? This is a forum about upgrading bike components and compatibility issues, not a platform to brag about your new toy. What's with the unnecessary capitalization and excessive enthusiasm? Get to the point, what's the relevance of your post to the topic at hand? Did you even bother to read the thread before posting?"

"I'm not convinced that the TI Rush is the ultimate in riding and performance. Sure, it's a beautiful bike, but have you considered the aerodynamic benefits of a more aggressive seat tube angle? I've been researching online and it seems like some bikes with a steeper angle can shave off precious seconds from your ride time. Not to mention, wouldn't you want to test ride a few more options before declaring it the best? Just saying, don't count out other brands just yet 😊."

"Sounds like you're swooning over that TI Rush, but what specific performance gains are you experiencing compared to your TE?"

Oh please, a 11 week wait for a bike that's just going to get you from point A to point B? You must be joking. I've got better things to do than wait that long for a bike that's just going to collect dust in my garage. And don't even get me started on the whole "ultimate in riding and performance" nonsense. I've seen better performing bikes at a fraction of the cost. The TI Rush is just a fancy toy for people who want to show off, not for serious cyclists. And what's with the all-caps enthusiasm? Calm down, dude, it's just a bike.

"So, what exactly makes the TI Rush's ride and handling so exceptional? Is it the titanium frame, the component spec, or something more subtle?"

"Underwhelming excitement aside, the TI Rush's performance and handling improvements are largely attributed to its optimized wheelbase and lowered center of gravity. The upgraded components and tweaked geometry likely contribute to the noticeable difference in ride quality. It's expected, given the 11-week wait and EasyRacer's reputation, that the bike would meet expectations. What's more interesting is how you plan to utilize the TI Rush's capabilities. Will you be tackling longer distances or exploring new terrain?"

"Wow, 11 whole weeks? You must be a saint for enduring such a brutal wait. I'm surprised you didn't need therapy to cope with the anticipation."

"What's with the over-the-top excitement? You got a new bike, congrats. It's not like you invented the wheel. The TI Rush is a great bike, no doubt, but let's not get carried away here. It's a bike, not a life-changing experience. Share some actual insights or reviews instead of just gushing like a fanboy."

"Beauty is only skin deep, mate. Let's see how that TI Rush holds up after a few thousand kilometers of rough Aussie roads and some serious crit racing. I've got a TCR Composite 2 fork that can take a pounding, but I'm not convinced this bent thingy can handle the real deal. Prove me wrong, and show us some serious power output numbers, not just pretty pictures."

Oh boy, another " ultimate in riding and performance" claim, huh? 😂 I've heard that one before, and it usually ends with a bunch of asterisks and fine print. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it's a nice bike, but "lives up to its reputation" after just one mile? Come on, you've got to be kidding me! 🙄 What exactly were you expecting from a TI Rush that you didn't get from your TE? Inquiring minds want to know... 🤔

Oh, spare me the swooning. You've got a shiny new bike and you're thrilled. Congratulations, you've joined the ranks of the besotted. Now, about that department store full-suspension bike you're trying to fix... 🤔

Listen, if your shifting has seized up, it's likely due to a lack of TLC. Take it apart, clean it, and lube it. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty. And that loose bottom bracket? Tighten it already! It's not rocket science. If you're still having issues, maybe, just maybe, it's time to consider upgrading to a bike that's not held together with glue and prayers. 😏

The TI Rush, a masterclass in recumbent design. The 11-week wait was clearly worth it, as that first mile of riding must have been a revelation. The improved handling and ride quality are a testament to EasyRacer's dedication to innovation. I'm curious, how do you find the TI Rush's performance compares to your previous TE, particularly in terms of acceleration and high-speed stability?

The whispers of a mystical ride have reached my ears. A TI Rush, forged from the depths of EasyRacer's sanctum, has finally found its way into mortal hands. Eleven weeks of anticipation, and the wait is over. The first mile, a revelation of sorts, where the harmony of ride and handling converges. A TE, once a trusted steed, now relegated to the shadows as the TI Rush ascends to its rightful throne. The roads, soon to be adorned with its ethereal presence, will whisper secrets to its rider. The miles, a mere formality, as the beauty of this machine is worshiped.
