  • Has anyone used a Hoy Fiorenzuola?

    I'm looking at track bikes for when Derby velodrome opens.

    The Hoy Fiorenzuola looks like a fairly decent bike with good components, especially the Omnium chainset.

    I imagine a Cinelli Vigorelli set up with equivalent components would be at least £1,000.

    If anyone has ridden a HF would you recommend it or would you say give it a miss?

    • Dolan Precursa
    • Cannondale CAAD Track due out imminently I think
    • Condor
    • Hinde
    • Secondhand??? There are some scarily cheap track bikes come up forsale.
    • And a number of places have Vigorelli's cheap at the moment.

    For Derby you will as a minimum need new tyres on a Hoy.
    If you go for a Dolan or build yourself you may end up with a more appropriate bike ready for the boards.

    I personally would only ever go tubular tyres on a steep banked track too.
