Hello forumites,
I managed to get a pretty special looking frame from @•Ⓣ• , with the intention of building up a track bike since I now live within riding distance of a velodrome (Herne Hill).
There's some much better photos of the frame on the classifieds post and some more info.
Still not sure on what exactly it is apart from a columbus stamp on the dropouts, a few small Plowman Craven stickers and a Ciclos Uno paint job.
Planning to build it up fairly classy but with a modern wheelset. Don't want to get too crazy with the parts as I'd rather race it than get too precious about it. Current build as it stands:
Frame/forks: ???
Headset: Campagnolo Chorus
Stem: Nitto NTC-150 100mm
Bars: Nitto B123 Cro-mo 40cm
Seatpost: Nitto S65
Might swap the bars to something shallower in the future. The drops are almost 10cm lower than I'm used to on the road bike.
Dream build if budget allows:
Cranks: Sugino 75s (silver)
Wheelset: DT Swiss T 1800
Tyres: Vittoria Corsas clinchers
