I’ve also been looking for a track bike and Dolan appears to be the only brand that takes track bikes seriously. Although one from Planet X might be worth considering;

Yes i have seen this as well but I have made up my mind that carbon is not the way forwards for me

Hoy Fiorenzuola was awesome - great value and with perfect track geo (steep seat angle, low headtube - almost like TT bike geo but without the slack headtube angle) and stiff as hell. They don’t make them anymore unfortunately, but if you could find one second hand, that’d be my pick.
If not, Dolan TC1’s a great choice - geo’s slightly less aggressive than trad track geo, but that may be better for you!

Buy my Giant Omnium for £500, then you’ve got £400 to blow on coke n rent boys

Thanks for sending over. I have decided to go ahead with the Dolan TC1 as there was a 10% sale during Xmas.

Suggestions for new track bike???
Posted by
@Angelos_Tso
Finally I got a hook in Herne Hill which means I can now buy a track bike that is going to live solely there.
My budget is around £900 for a complete aluminum bike.
The only brand that offers options for heavy customisation is Dolan, hence I am thinking to go forward with the Dolan TC1 with the Sugino SG75 for crank set (165mm) and Miche Pistard.
Is there any other brand that I should consider ?
