I have a container of Ti bolts that gets empty as I build a bike, re-fills when I re-build the bike with OE parts for sale and empties again with the new bike. It is nothing to do with weight, I just like the happy rainbow colours and the fact that I never have one of those ugly brown rust spots on my so-called stainless bolts. They also look better with their generally smaller and lower profile heads. I know I have a fairly extreme version of OCD and this is one of the little things that give it a harmless outlet.
