The irony is that once you get past about 57cm you can pick up Keirin frames pretty cheap as none of the locals can ride them (racist). It's the 52cm - 54cm ones that the locals seem to fight over.
however, due to the fact that there are very few frames that size, and western people willing to pays lots of money for a big frame.... they really dont go for cheap.
Plus alot of Japanese (at least in my part of the country) dont ride Keirin frames, they ride Western Frames... Soma/Surly etc
