Holland Bicycles of the San Diego area is not your basic, average household bicycle company! The owner, master builder Bill Holland, is one of only three builders licensed to use the titanium/carbon-fused tubing called ExoGrid. The process involves taking a titanium tube and strategically laser-cutting the majority of the tube wall away in diamond patterns, and then co-molding carbon fiber in the tube. What you end up with are Ti tubes that are greatly reduced in weight, while the inlaid carbon adds vibration damping and torsional stiffness that the metal tubing doesn’t have on its own.
