I've defo seen it before... with a gear hanger... or evidence of one. Someone suggested it may of been added on after original build, then later removed... anyway... thats as much as I remember...
Yeah, you're right. It was on eBay and probably featured in the eBay Finds thread on here. In the photos it was on a table in a field. I remember it looking like it had a mech-hanger too and we discussed how it was strange that the owner didn't know a little more about it considering it's obscurity.
If it did have a mech-hanger, for me that'd make a little more sense it terms of design/strength. Wouldn't the forces exerted on the bb area of track frame likely be more than those on a TT frame?
