The definitive OTP ( Off-The-Peg ) List (<£500 and <£1,000 sections)

Dolan track champ framesets are a reasonable price, and light (er) ? perhaps, and even with a relatively heavy wheel build I dont think they tip the scales -

agh too much to think about, will see what pops up

I doubt the track champ is lighter than the langster. Its built for stiffness, with far less emphasis on weight saving.
