It can be a PITA to tap. Other than that, there are no real downsides to using Ti links. It's strong and light. I've been looking for a 3mm 125-128mm Ti link to use for my steering Tie rod for clearence reasons, but all of the 3mm turnbuckles I find are too short. |

They use 3/16" for that length of link. Might not find anything that long in smaller diameter. http://www.lunsfordracing.com/mm5/merchant.mvc? | |
