Dolan Pre Cursa / PreCursa / Track Champion

Not debating that, I know nothing about his intended use but I recognise that both frames are on opposing ends of the spectrum but that makes my choice even more difficult. Is the Pompino on sale around the same time every year?

They're very very cheap frame, just need to wait till they're on sales, every couple or so month they're £99 for the last 2 years (as far as I remembered).

Thanks Ed, I've ridden a PC with a short stem and know that it was great with the 28c tyres, I'll need a go on an XL pomp.

Got a medium Pompino for salez if interested.

Need to get it sold, tis all.

What kinda tyre sizes can we get in the back of an FXE/PC again?

I've run my PC with a 35c Conti crosstyre in the rear. Required a tiny bit of trimming of the outermost knobbles.

This is still one of my favourites.

if your willing to pay postage, it could be done

these a40 rims are so nice.

A&P how much and with forks?

Not to small for you big man?

Frame only sorry, id be happy with like £80 for that though

To precursa owners : Maybe someone is using 53t chainring with some road cranks like shimano 600, rd2, how does it fit ? also what lenght bb are you using?

Shimano Exage 500 or something with a 52mm ring on 107mm bb

Chainring bolt spacers were a bit tight but Should be fine with single speed bolts.

reading through this thread I can see that the precursa can take wider tires, is the track champion the same? ideally I'd like to run a 28 on the rear and a 25 on the front.

^when will that be? I'm waiting for that too. And also not sure about the whole Pre Cursa / Pompino thing :/

Brakeless aluminium track frame v steel cyclocross style frame with canti/v mounts.

How can you be comparing/considering these?

True this.

Also, they're so cheap that you can have both. Like I do :-)

Brakeless?

Nah mate, they are both cheap frames with track ends and both can fit similar tyre sizes.

Just because they're cheap and have track ends doesn't mean they're remotely similar.

They'd both do a similar thing for me.

What, fail?

Brother, they're both too small for you.

Pompino you can get away with having a lots of spacer, whether the Precursa you look like a fucking idiot with a fucked back and the ability to lose the front wheel

They're completely different bikes. Get rid of the ridiculous on one and get something that'll fit your t Rex brotherhoods syndrome.

Look guys it's really not that difficult. If they were similar I wouldn't have such a hard time choosing now would I? I would just get the cheapest one and be done with it. I just need want a new bike and I'm trying to decide which one would better suit my intended purpose.

My point being that your "intended purpose" should either make it blindingly obvious which bike is more suitable or the purpose is such that neither is suitable ie.

That doesn't make sense but thanks for your concern.
