I have absolutely no knowledge of freestyle unis. I appologize that I am
not adding anything interesting etc etc.

Why do you want 48 spokes if you want to conserve weight?
Another option is to get a triton sponge frame. Talk to Dmitry about
making a long neck. Triton are wizards when it comes to working with
titanium.

Just a thought🙂 .

I'm sorry that I'm not exactly posting reliable information, but I've
heard that the signature (and black domina) frames are both pretty
weak. I've seen a couple broken dominas, and because the signature
frames are the same design I'd assume that they would have the same
flaws.

I'm also curious to hear why you like 48 spokes.

another option would be to get one of the custom made titanium
freestyle frames from this company whose name I forgot. I know Ntappin
had been going to get one. someone please insert the name here 😉

do you mean the triton sponge frame? Because although it is the coolest
frame ever it would suck for advanced freestyle, because it doesn't
have a flat crown or at least the forky crowns (think nimbus2 for koxx
free tricks). As for the signature frame I'm not really sure about how
good it is, I imagine it would be good but i've never ridden it so i
don't know.

sorry i couldn't be of any more help, maybe try to find someone sortof
close to you with one that yu could try.

No, I don't, I mean this frame which I just found again.

lollipop bearing holders are actually pretty great if they are made
well.

that makes sense i guess just from my experience with them and there
general reputation i sort of grew to stay as far away from them as
possible. Also i suppose they would free up some space on the cranks
although thats not so important on a freestyle.

Triton makes custom frames. If you gave dmitry an idea, he will make it
for you, with life-time warranty. He has made loads of stuff, so give
him an email.

I believe Miyata also makes ti frames, w/ lollypop bearings. Freestyle
and trials. The trials looks like sponges.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.

WHY DO YOU WANT 48 SPOKES IF YOU WANT TO CONSERVE WEIGHT?

Just a thought🙂 .

The reason for why i want 48 spokes is that, in these years i'm riding
freestyle, i haven't got good experience with 36spoke wheels. (i mean
spokes that were ripped out more easily, the rim was bending faster,
the spokes were making a lot of noise time after time, even after my
wheel was fixed... this was not only on my unis, but also on my
friends'😉
It's also due to my riding style : i'm practicing a lot of kickup mount
variations an do a lot of 1m² tricks where the wheel has to resist to a
lot of power.

In my calculation, i would save already up to 2 kg (with a 36spoke
wheelset) in comparison to my dm. Wich is quite good i think. So that
allows me choosing a more heavier, but also a more rigid 48 spoke
wheel.

Also a big plus is that the koxx one frame has a 'bearing distance' of
100mm, which is a bit more than the dm (90mm) and alows for building a
more rigid wheel.

I'm not really afraid of the weldments, but more about bending the long
'neck'.

Anyway, I'll also have a look at these miyata frames, and maybe letting
build a custom one. (but i think that's to much money for me)

just to warn you, if the signature frame broke, it would snap, not bend
because it's aluminum.

I think you are getting too worried about frame snapping.

Yes frames HAVE broken, often from people being overly abusive to them.
Another thing is that pretty much all frames HAVE broken at some point,
and pretty much the only frame that has a pattern of breaking is the DX
frame, which is now fixed.
