Gorgeous! Shame it didn't work out for you. I assume you went through a proper fitting to get it right for you?

Yup, paid £90 to get it all spot on, but it's not totally wasted. I'm going to get another frame built to the same measurements but a road 130mm spacing rather than the track 120mm this frame has.
Just need to 'release the equity' in this frame first so I can through it all again!

No one fancying some Ti?

If it helps you, it is possible to have a gear cassette of up to 5 gears in 120mm width, I have once built that and it works very well.

Thanks for the heads up on that but I'm kinda going for the no compromise option so looking at the 11spd options that are out there.
Any interest?
Hi,
I've just received a custom built titanium fixie/SS frame from Waltly Titanium which I order about 8 weeks ago.
I used to ride a fixie a lot and loved it but it was killing my knees. I stopped for a couple of years but then recently decided screw it, let's go the full 9 yards and build a custom titanium beast. I've jumped back on my old fixie to get back into it and my knees are playing up again after about a week.
Sadly I just don't think my knackered knees are up to it so I think I'm going to have to pass this one on.
The frame is meant to be a 'do it all' frame so has a eyelets for mudguards and rear pannier if ever needed. Cable routing to rear brake it internal.
Geometry is:
Seat tube (C-C) - 540
Seat tube (C-T) - 580
Top tube (Horz) - 570
Seat tube angle - 73 -
Head tube angle - 74
Head tube length - 200
Chainstay length - 430
BB drop - 67
Tube diameters are:
Down tube - 38.1
Head tube - 38.1
Top tube - 31.8
Seat tube - 31.8
Seat stay - 16
Chain stay - 23x15 ovalised to 19
Frame comes with a lifetime warranty. From my research Waltly are very good with honouring warrantees but they won't cover shipping it back to them. But as you'll see from the close-ups below the welding is spot on.
I'm looking for £600 so grab a bargain.
