An anecdote told by one of my mechanics lecturers centred around a racer neighbour of his who had problems with some titanium rods because of their extra "stretch".

Given the lower Young's modulus of Ti they will elongate/compress more, especially given the forces produced at high RPM.

I've never done the maths, so cant vouch for the accuracy, but bear this in mind.
