Moda Track Bikes

So, whats your opinions and experiences with the modas, specifically the track bikes? Arco, Forte and Fresco all seem to be nice and decent bikes over here. But it seems they stayed a bit under the radar.

The american classic wheelsets that they are coming with are kinda interesting, too.

They're good

I just wish I could find their cheaper model in man size (6ocm).

I had a forte. Sprayed it purple. Very stiff and responsive. Rode it on the track and road. Frame unfortunately I find too small, selling it on and I've changed to something different. For what I paid (600) for the full bike I was impressed but did upgrade cranks stem bars, post and saddle to suit my own asthetics. Wheels are wicked though. Very light.

The Arco is the weapon of choice for the Herne Hill yoofs.

They beat me week in week out so it must be alright?

Where did you spray it? I want to spray my own Fresco as well.

Yeah, the Barelli groupset seems to be nothing special. But handlebars, seats etc are on riders preference anyway

It's just rattle can dude by @privatepatterson and @IR

Moda are loan bike choice at Derby Velodrome, there's a fleet of 30+.

Sounds reasonable. Did the paint hold?

What are the differences in the Fresco and the Forte frame? I feel like they are pretty similar with the fresco just having an alloy fork, where the forte offers a carbon fork. The frames itself seem similar.

There is also rare information about the Victory 30 wheelset throughout the internet, there are some information about their road counterparts, but that's it. Is it possible that the victory 30 track wheels are just some 420 Aero hubs and spokes combined with the victory 30 rims?

I have these wheels, the hubs are American Classic track front and rear with bladed spokes and 30mm V rims. Pretty light for what they are, and holding well for brakeless street riding, but not the stiffest
