Looking for that Floridian titanium frame maker

[thomfalter]

There's a small company in Florida that manufactures titanium frames that I found out about through this forum, but I have lost the link. Can anybody point me to it? Just to help jog memories, their frames begin at $699. Thanks.

I don't know how active they are: I emailed them a few weeks ago, but no one ever got back to me.

Regards, Robert

Robert has the website address for you. I just wanted to put in a good word for Mark Hickey, who started Habanero. He is a top notch guy, very straightforward, honest and patient. If he is still with the company (he is also a professional engineer), try to communicate your needs to him. He'll advise you well. I bought a Habby ti w/ Campy 8-speed back in 96. A friend is still happily riding it. Barring catastrophe, the frame will last forever.
