Funnily enough, or not so funny in my case, my current project, a 50's frejus track frame has developed a crimp in the headtube. So imminent frame faliure is kinda well... imminent. My good friend 'firefly paul' is off riding the alps with his 'firefly' charidee cyclist chums and has kindly lent me his 'orlowski' track bike while he is tackling harsh gradients with his more sensible carbon affair, you know 500 pound brake levers etc. It's a nice frame, once I had replaced his unforgiving saddle! It's relatively light although there is no indication of tube origin. It's quite a tight frame so the toe overlap is noticable at slow speeds even with 165 cranks, but for the money I'd say it's an ok buy. You can feel the steel if you know what I mean. Anyway hope that was helpful!
