Can someone comment on the differences, if any, between Zeus Titanium axles and Campagnolo Titanium axles? I heard that the first Campagnolo Titanium parts used commercially pure Titanium, which was a stupid thing to do because it's not a very strong alloy.

Did anyone in the vintage era use 6/4 Titanium alloy to make standard M10 x 26tpi campy-compatible axles ??
