ah - was it webbed on the insides of the diamond and a kind orange/gold? (it was too much for me - but i liked the idea of what he was explaning ) the guy told me was to stiffen it because road BB was used to give slacker angles. recent trips to the velodrome (on the track itself) suggested i might be more comfortable on a lazier bike - bit twitchy for me - i like a tourer on the road so i figure 6 day for the track .
did i talk to you at the thing - i was running a temperature and behaving a little erratically - felt like shit and spending borrowed money like water - yes i cleaned that lady out on the frames front plus a few more things - only leaving a bonded carbon frame behind - some very nice and unusual things there - the goff - check out the stalk on that. - 2 or 3 low pros in the bunch.
the chrome track frame (i'm about to post it in bikes and bits as it's an odd ball - take a look. )was mis leading - huge headtube but only 57cm on top tube - looks like it's meant for 650c or 24" on front - bet it'll look weird. but BB too low for track - bet they wouldn't let me ride anything but 700/700 anyway.
