Bolts for Rollo Disks now available
Yes they have them. There weren't too many shipped to North America on
the first shipment though, so I'm not sure how many are left. More
should be coming around May.

Titanium Hub?
Good point. The relationship between high-end product and price is
always non-linear.
At least we are not the bike industry. I was looking at an

Notwithstanding the coolness factor of titanium, the main difference is
weight. You're absolutely right that the major difference to

Good point. ISIS was never intended for an aluminum axle.
Weight savings can come from using a bigger hole through the axle (M15

as mentioned above it depends on how it is measured.
Ti has a stronger strength to weight ratio than steel but a...

Good point. None of the prototypes have broken in about 6 months of
testing, and it is machined one piece. However, nothing is
indestructible!
