Hard to tell, the picture is not that clear.
BALK is a bike shop in Nieuw Vennep, The Netherlands.
Owner is Klaas Balk, former track ace and Dutch national champion.
So, bikes with BALK labels could be anything.
AT the Amsterdam Velodrome, there are BALK rental bikes. Don't know if these are all from the same manufacturer. Perhaps old frames have been resprayed. Very common.
But, it seems that some BALK track frames have been made at the Eddy Merckx factory. Needs more examination though.
Maybe a detailed picture of the fork crown, incl. front wheel ?
Marks underneath BB shell ?
