Entire length of chain stay was always protected with thick nylon spiral wrap. In addition to the Fat installed anti-suck "toothpick" a guide drop chain catcher device was also added, thus I never experienced any chain suck issues or chain stay damage whatsoever.

As with any titanium bike frame, there are a few superficial scuffs that can easily be removed with scotch-brite and a little elbow-grease. Otherwise there are no dings, dents, scratches, cracks or gouges on the frame.

This frame was built in the Fat City Cycles shop in Somerville, MA. before the operation was moved to the Serotta location in South Glen Falls, NY.

Included:

* 1993 Fat City Cycles catalog, which features the Fat Ti details & specs.

* A complete set of brand new "Fat Titanium" frame decals in red.

* The Fat Chance hang tag signed by the entire Team Fat crew including
serial number.
