Titanium Mountain Bike Frames
For a mountain bike that's both light and capable of handling anything nature has to offer regardless of the cost, titanium mountain bike frames can be a great option.
Titanium mountain bike frames are extremely light, because titanium itself is a light and workable. But titanium is also durable, both in the short term and long term, and a good mountain bike frame needs durability to survive the punishment it may take on a typical course. A good titanium mountain bike frame can handle any mountain, and also handle the sustained rigor of difficult riding over time.

Among the other popular materials, steel is durable but heavy, while aluminum is light but more susceptible to damage. A titanium frame combines the best of both materials. Plus it resists corrosion, so it's easier to care for, and the natural shine of the titanium mountain bike frames makes it stand out at the starting line as well.
That's why titanium racing bikes are popular among the professional riders. There's another reason for that as well -- titanium mountain bike frames are expensive. But the pros want only the best to race down the toughest courses against the best competition, and many of the best options are made of titanium.
