Anyone know what this is...

Old s-works track or a new steel spec??

from todays FGG offerings.

looks like specialized have brought out a new steel frame

from the out of proportion graphic on the downtube i reckon it's someone with spesh fetish who stuck them on a steel frame... that thing can't be a spesh.

Why not? I had a lugged steel Spesh Sirrus from the early 90's. Though i'm not sure they did track frames in steel. I may be very worng though.

I'm sure it's older rather than a new design though.

I'm sure it's just someone with a spare spesh decal set that wants to mess with the heads of the fixedbikepolice..

That brake lever is dangerous...

I hate specialized graphics, I think the designers at specialized should all be fired. Some people must like them though, and this guy seems to be one of these people.

Hammo I'm sure it's older rather than a new design though.

I think you're right. There were (a few) Specialized track frames built in the 90s. Pretty sure they were built by somene else and rebadged. I also once had a Specialized branded deep drop quill track stem that was made by SR.

yes. its gay

anyone know what bars those are?

They look a bit like Easton track bars but I'm certainly no expert on bars not involving a chocolate coating.

3Rensho actually built a few Specialized road frames in the early to mid-80s. Seriously. Perhaps they put together some track frames too?

there was a bike like that for sale on eBay or gumtree a few weeks ago, some old trakc frame with spesh stickers, it wasn't listed as a spesh though, something else, maybe the same bike?

turpe

Yeah I was gonna say 3rensho earlier but wasn;t sure if my memory was right.

i think i saw a similar bike in camden/kentish town this morning?

the 3rensho angle came up on the FGG forum

probably just a road frame with track dropouts fitted. nice though.
