Hi All,
I thought I would start a project thread for my new frameset - a 2014 Bridgestone Anchor PHM9 carbon in green/white livery.
I was riding a Condor x Richard James full carbon track frameset, however the integrated seat mast has been cut a tad too short for me and it has been proven impossible to locate a Dedaccia King Pin (long version) to remediate the situation. (#CSBstart Dedaccia has it in stock in Italy - ChickenCycleKit, the official importer does not want to let me order it directly and DeVer Cycles can't be bothered helping out #CSBend)
This frameset was purchased from Jason Burrill who has picked up 3 top 5’s in the Masters Track Championships back in 2014. He picked up an injury earlier on this year, hence the sale.
I've not been to the track in a long while so it is likely that it will temporarily be ridden in HHSB guise with a view to peraps go back to LVV at some point.
Technical Data:
The Bridgestone Anchor PHM9 Track Frameset is one of the best Track Cycling Framesets of all time and is seen as a legend within the world of Track Cycling.
Used by countless professional Track Cyclists, including Victoria Pendleton, the latest version of the classic frame is available in an attractive range of colours and three sprint specific sizes.
A reference point for the vast majority of rival manufacturers, hence the similarity to a number of well-known market leading products, the PHM9 is still in a league of it's own.
Cut-Outs in the Down Tube and Seat Tube allow for more clearance for Disc Wheels such as the Mavic Comete which also allows for wheels to be inserted closer to the frame, giving less drag further increasing the aerodynamic advantage
The Stainless-Steel Dropouts have been made thicker and stronger meaning they have increased durability for the countless gear changes that Track Cycling involves. Adjusters have also been added for perfect alignment of the wheels.
Made from the highest quality Carbon-Fibre by Bridgestone's skilled designers in Japan, the Bridgestone PHM9 Track Frameset is incredible value for money and guaranteed to provide you with the means for reaching your goals and optimising your performance, the rest is down to you!
