No - It is a custom that was intentionally built with short reach
brakes.  Not by me, I bought it used.  It barely fits the 30mm Grand
Bois, that's one of the reasons I stick with them, they're the fattest
tire I can get in there.

I used to post under a different email, I was just getting too much
email at that address so I created a separate account for all my list
serve email.

I'm considering an AHH for my next attempt at PBP, but for now I am
soldiering on as-is.
