It came with running boards, but I left them off for now to save weight. This thing is not a featherweight...Quote:

Depends on what makes the wheelbase long :)Quote:

I finally completed the build of the sweet Habanero Ti frame that I bought from hozn. I had a ton of analysis paralysis about buying the parts. And then once I got them I put most of it together but was too intimidated by installing the hydraulic brakes and the bike languished in the corner.
Birru convinced me to bring it in to Conte’s in Old Town to finish it up. Just got it last night.

Damn, she's a looker....Quote:
