Quickpro ER ONE Titanium axles?

Has anyone found some that aren't a million pounds.

Quite a few on aliexpress now around £25 per axel but I can't find the correct spec.

I haven't seen any cheap titanium ones but Sparts makes aluminum ones that are just 7g heavier than the titanium ones and there's less risk of them getting stuck. I have them the weight is accurate and they have been working fine.

I ordered these in the Ti version for my ER One. They work well.

You too can save about 30 grams/1 oz by spending $200 for these axles...

That's about $6.66 USD per gram in weight savings.   It would be far less expensive to stop drinking a beer now and again, and lose the weight off of your body.
OTOH,  if your body mass index is already optimized and you have less than 5% body fat, then spending $200 to save an ounce is a great deal...

Just saying...

Edit:  Looking at TI axles for sale on Aliexpress, one reasonable priced listing for TI through axles, the TI axles they are selling weigh more than stock Aluminum axles.   https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808530370099.html
