NTP-Nelson Titanium Products, if he is still doing work. Should be
able to help. Google NTP bikes. Last time I interacted with him his
shop was in the Bayview neighborhood in San Francisco.
Dan Nelson is the person.
I had a Teledyne Titan where someone drilled holds in the top tube to allow cable stops to be installed (mechanically, screwed into the holes). Dan patched those also holes and fixed a crack seat binder. In a separate job I had a Russian Made Titanium frame where the chain stay started to crack longitudinally. Dan ran a bead of Ti along the crack fixing it and the bike has been ridden trouble free for several thousand miles, post repair.
Not only does he build but he is a enthusiastic rider. He passed me years ago while we were both doing the Devil Mountain Double Century.
Dan rides, builds and repairs road and mountain bikes. I've only seen him riding bikes he's made for himself. Always titanium. He is an honest, hard working person. He tries to work quickly and commits to a particular day to complete the project. It's been a while since I last interacted with him so not sure if he is sill working. Good luck.

- framebuilder recommendation - 1 Update
French Clements <french....@gmail.com>: Apr 23 09:36PM
Hi folks, I am fixing up a lovely old mountain bike and hoping to discuss the possibility of drilling two holes in its titanium frame for dropper post routing.
Are there any framebuilders in or near the east bay who specifically work in titanium? I've explored it with Erik Billings but hoping for some others as well.
Thanks,
French Clements
