Bike porn

yup, they have always used a tange steel fork for that frame
probably to soften the front end, an alu one would make it as stiff as a very stiff thing.

Yeah, you wouldn't want a stiff light fork on the track. It is all about the comfort :-)

Now someone is doing it right by replacing old groupset with proper modern one

FFS Ed, just cos it's your favourite thing to do doesn't make it the right thing to do! It's just one option. Nice 'Pinar' though.

That Pinarello is absolutely lovely. Good find.

Those cannondales are HILARIOUS!

Too many pies.

Non-matching wheels, no grips/tape, if the position is right it needs a zero offset seat post, stupid skinny fork. Not porn.

sorry, the build isn't finished yet (forgot that info).

and as we already know, you and some others don't like the frame,
but you musn't shout it out after each canno-posting. thx.

If people are going to +1 every 3Rensho or Kalavinka, I can at least -1 the more egregious Cracknfails. The 2000s C'Dale track bikes with proper forks and without the cantilevered track ends look decent enough, it's only the 90s ones which look wrong.

and i think that the 2000s are looks ugly

Is this bike used solely for hill climbs? (saddle angle)

If not how does anyone ride it, their wrists/shoulders etc,. must be agony.

^ Affinity? Reminds me of one of those chav cartoons they try and flog at Motorshows...

What's wrong with old cranksets?

Still cant get over the forks on the cannondale track, really dont seem in keeping with the rest of the bike.

Do you know it's really grown on me though, I've just bought Ebenzo's Makino fork for my Fort 7005 Track, should have a similar enough look to the Cannondale when it's back from the coaters! Which I can't wait for by the way :D Secretly anticipating a porn-worthy finished article
