Dolan Pre Cursa / PreCursa / Track Champion

Looks like it may be the 60cm so owner might have trouble finding larger track frames.

according to pedal room it is a 60cm

Look fine to me, not sure where's everyone is saying about it's being too big.

Nowhere, Tom just said it looks a little small.

My PC

One of the nicest pc's i seen yet.

Any idea which bar it is?

i would love to have a 60cm beater pre cursa, which i actual don't need

Did anyone take their PreCursa with the Dolan carbon blade winter road forks instead of the alpinas? Any opinions on these? They seem to have a drilling for a front brake already, so they might be nice for a street-fixie...

Probably something like Deda rhm 02.

I have it on my Preffisio - longer axel-to-crown, fits rather large tyres (30-32c).

To be honest, I don't know.
If you go to the Pre Cursa Frameset page:
http://www.dolan-bikes.com/dolan-track-bikes/track-framesets/track-frameset-aluminium/dolan-pre-cursa-aluminium-track-frameset.html
You can choose between the standard alpina fork and a "Dolan Carbon Blade with Aluminum Steerer Winter Road Fork"
If you choose this fork, you can also choose a front brake, so I suppose it's drilled.
But I haven't found any specification on that fork...

Must be the one I linked to - it does indeed have a hole and my SRAM Rival brakes are well fitted on it.

Here is mine, when in tarck mode:

Get the track fork and drill it yourself (if you have access to pillar drill etc). Straight blade so looks much nicer than a road fork.

Have the road fork on my Track Champ (2 pages back) it's nice and I think it looks pretty good, but I do kinda wish I had gone for the alpina and drilled it myself.

Alpina track fork is already drilled, it's just been filled in. Drilling it back out is apparently piece of piss.

Wouldnt say its a piece of piss (drilled mine last friday). Theres a bar in the middle which can be a right twat if you dont have very new drill bits (i broke two in the hour and half it took me to drill mine). All worked in the end was just very frustrating.

I take it back then - prob easy because it was done by a friend who drills holes in stuff for a living.

I drilled mine with a small hand drill, no problems. Start with a small one and then take out the bigger one. You don't have to drill the whole bar, drill from one side and when you get far enough drill from the other side and the bar falls off.

I've got access to a drill press and a number of bits. So drilling shouldn't be a problem. ;) Cheers guys.

Is there any one here who i could send a fork to too get drilled properly? the price of postage may be worth it to get it done right.

My pre cursa. Now has alpinas back on and Fsa Vision base bar.

My pre cursa for track and rolling around town. The wheels are swapped out for road duties..
