I have about £300-350 to spend on a new track frame for myself, preferably aluminium, thick tubing, was wondering if anyone had suggestions for my price range, was looking at the 2016 Polo and Bike williamsburg as an option:

http://poloandbike.com/williamsburg/frameset/

Has anyone had any experience buying frames from them before, also looking at brother cycles frames (which are slightly more expensive) and some dropout cycles club frames that looked nice but quite standard looking.

I'm open to all suggestions but I don't want to make the same mistake I did when i first bought a complete bike from BLB which is waste my money on a bunch of BLB parts and an aventon cordoba frame.

Thanks

i'd suggest you try brother cycles. Cycle PS in Camberwell stock them.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
