Yes, if you are a Georgia resident, the State of GA will give you a $5,000 tax rebate on an electric vehicle.  If you purchase this year, you will get the rebate some time after next April when you file your taxes.  You can stop by any Nissan dealer for more info.  GA is not the only state offering additional rebates, if you are lucky enough to live in a state that adds to the Federal rebate, you can lease a Leaf on the cheap.

The Titan looks like a good frame, the main pivot is just slightly different (swings from below the TT instead of on the TT), it also looks like the Titan would be a bit stronger but possibly heavier than my IP-036.  The one thing it's missing for me is 12x142 drop outs.

Cool looking bike light!

just bought some Ikons!

Haven't tried those yet but they look like a really nice tires.  Maxxis has a design center near me in GA.  I met one of the tire engineers on the trail one day, ironically, his buddy had a flat tire.  He changed the tube on his friends bike in about 2 min, faster than anyone I've ever seen.

Hmmm, 100mm wide ( or 4 inches) seems very wide.  Since I have ridden only one fat bike I really can't say if I would want 80mm or 100mm wide rims.  Either way, I'm not really interested in building a fat bike right now.

Good luck with your sales Peter!  Also, congratulations on your marriage!

I agree they have a rather large rise, but my stem has a 0deg angle so no additional height there.  I suppose if I had an angled stem I could flip it over for some negative rise and bring the bars down a bit.

I also thought about keeping the flat bars and changing out the stem for one with some positive angle as another option.  I'm not a supper aggressive rider and the riser bars on my IP-057 make my seated position really comfortable so who knows.

I get some fatigue in my lower back if I'm to bent over the bars so the riser bars should help there, I also noticed that I could use a bit more weight over the back tires when I stand up and peddle so a riser bar could help a little there too.

UPDATE:

Changed out the carbon flat bar for a carbon riser bar, when I ordered the frame, I ordered both styles of carbon bars from XMIplay.  Width is still 680mm.  I was a little concerned that I had cut the cable and brake lines to perfectly reach up to the flat bar and they would be a bit short for the riser bar, not so, lengths are fine.

I'm trying the riser bar to see if it fits me better and is more comfortable.  I won't know until the next ride, maybe Wednesday.  I can say one thing, flat bars do look a bit better, more race oriented.

Here are a few pics from in the garage, already dark outside so indoor shots only.  Please ignore the bike computer, it's functional but kinda sticks out there.  Would be nice if I could mount it on the stem, but the mount is designed for the bar.
