The "Red Titanium" MTB
Title should read "Titanium Red."
A couple of years ago, I purchased a Ti MTB frame from a very knowledgeable seller in the Netherlands. At the time, he told me that it was a mid 90's frame made in Russia for a Dutch bike company. You have seen this bike in various iterations. However, yesterday, our colleagues on the Retrobike Forum filled out the history for me. So, maybe what I'm riding on is a recycled MIG! This is the kind of discovery that makes C&V expecially fun! Now I need a red star head badge.
Check out these two links:

And here is the bike as a small tire SS, large tire ss and gravel grinder.
