The track bike now:
55cm Top and Seat Tube measurements.
Built by Bernard Carre. http://www.classicrendezvous.com/France/bicycles/Carre_Bernard.htm
Super Vitus 971 Tubing with shot in stays and 'Fleur-De-Lys' Fork Crown. Gold lug lining again.
Not drilled for a brake.
Paint by Broggio, condition is not as good as the TT frame but still lovely.
Currently running 23c Paselas but iirc it will take 25c tyres.
French headset on this one, Zeus headset installed in good mechanical condition.
Bottom bracket is also a Mavic 610RD on this one, with the track length axle installed.
Crankset is Mavic Starfish with 49t TA chainring. The crank length is 172.5mm as I never quite found a working 165mm pair.
I do however have a cracked 165mm pair and a non-cracked 165mm drive side crank which you could use with a non matching nds arm if you wanted.
Wheelset is Mavic 520 track hubset 24h laced to HPlusSon Archetype rims in gunmetal.
Never seen a brake but there are a few scratches on the rear rim from when the chain dropped.
Jean Paul Routens seatpost as I wanted a silver one and Mavic only made black ones. The bars and stem are both Mavic, with the bars being the track shape drops which are very hard to find. The risers fitted in the photos I used in another project.
Price is £200 for the frame
£500 for the full bike
SOLD
