As I understand it the Ellsworth track frames are of exceedingly high quality (Easton tubing I think?) and were what the Polish Olympic squad were using at one time.
However.
They seem to suffer from association with a brand better known for making rather garish mtb frames - I say better known but infact suspect that many who are looking for a track frame have never even heard of Ellsworth - and thus, often sell for much less than an equivalent quality of frame from a more well know manufacturer (with a pedigree in track cycling) would.
