Default Titanium knobs back in stock next weekend

By popular demand, we'll have titianium Team Voodoo shift knobs back in stock in about a week. No group buy this time -- we're going to try to keep them in stock. They'll be available for online orders on our web site next weekend: www.ricks2k.com/products/shiftknob.php

wow.. just after I post a reply in another thread about the discontinuation of your titanium knob, I come across this thread. Freaking awesome, I'll be ordering one.
Btw, I still have to ask, what's really the diff between aluminum one and titanium one? Advantages? disadvantages?

I was just about to post in your other thread that Rick made this announcement! It's your lucky day...

I think I'd consider this knob if I hadn't recently bought the Magnum knob from Rick. I do love my black countersunk knob though

Oh boy it's $160 ><

Is titanium one that better than aluminum one?

Any justification on 4x price O.o

titanium is SO MUCH LIGHTER and because it conducts more vibration, you get a better, more direct feel in your palm.

nightcrawler: titanium is heavier than aluminum. the benefit here isn't weight reduction. a heavier knob (to a point) helps shift movement (especially with the grind-prone 1-2.)
