Hi all, I've read about them but never seen any, had a set sent to me, but they were just silver annodised alloy ones, I do have a set of Racodi Ti toeclips, easy to ID as has either Ti or Titanio written on them, plus the fact they do look like Ti as opposed to silver anodised alloy ones, you can tell by looking at them, if you suspect alloy just give them a scratch somewheer that cannot be seen, and you will soon tell wether you have alloy or Ti.........regards wayne davidson Invers NZ......
