hey guys
I'm new to this forum and I've been riding a fixed gear conversion (an old CILO frame) for about a year now. Now I'm planning on buying an actual "track" frame (I know it's not a genuine track geometry, but still...) - either the IRO Angus (http://www.irocycle.com/angusframeset.aspx) or the Mark V Pro (http://www.irocycle.com/markvproframeset.aspx)
now as far as I can see the only real difference between the two is the headset - it's either 1" threaded (Angus) or 1 1/8 threadless. The rest is the same: steel, price, et cetera
now I'm sort of not sure which one to pick - even after reading this thread. What can you guys recommend? I don't do tricks (also not planning on starting), I use my conversion mainly for commuting and little rides in the evening every now and then (<20 miles)
so - any recommendations?
cheers,
frank
