Check out these guys for Ti springs. I got one for my Sunday. I think the quality is a step above the RCS stuff.

watch your tire pressure on those tubless tire's going through the rock gardens, front tire broke a bead and sent me flying over the bars, other than that they work great , I run tubes in mine now though.
Nice rig though!!!

chongo, i pretty much keep them aired up a bit cause the races at fontucky are crazy pedally. the pressure that feels perfect for rock gardens completely sucks on the flat pedal sections.
thanks for the warning though, this is my first attempt at tubeless so i will be keeping a close eye on it.

I saw some Ti springs on ebay today. Not sure what brand but I might pick one up for my heckler. If I recall my v10 spring was 450# x 2.75. They don't seem to have any 2.75's but the 2.50 they have is a lot longer than my steel 2.50 in terms of physical length - almost 6inches. For $25 how wrong can you go?
