Mercian frames always did that...
All frames have a drilled crown for brake fitment unless specifically required without, but we will need a written letter of confirmation that it is for track use only.

Even with a brake?

ffs considering you can buy cars capable of doing twice the speed limit without needing a note from your mum saying you won't ever use 6th gear

Just overheard in Evans one staff member telling another that if customers are buying a fixed gear, they have to sign a waiver to say that they agree that they intend only to use it on the track.
Fair enough that they're covering themselves really but the whole things gone mad.That is true, we were also told about this today.
I thought it was illegal to sell a bike without brakes unless specifically for track so I suspect this has been in place for years in many shops. The staff member was informing the other chap as if it was a new thing, a change in policy so I suspect it is for other fixed bikes.
Bingo.
Pretty much all we have to do is ensure the bicycle meet the European Standards before selling them.
