Track frame around £250

im looking at a 55cm (5'10" and 33" inside leg with a little bit of room to grow) and im in the west midlands (hereford)

pretty sure you have been after a bike/frame for about 3 months now?
is the luck not with you?!

3 months, sounds about right :( mind im a lazy bugger so it takes me ages to do anything, i did buy that poyner road bike off here though about 1 month ago, im in love with it! but i want a building project atm!

So why are you about to buy an OTP then?...

glad you like the pyner rocker, it's a beaut...

if you want a project and have time to spare, buy a nice road frame for 100 and spend 150 on track drops and the colour of your choice..

if it were me however the nelson looks awesome

hey tilover, the poyner is beautiful ive riden it prett much everyday since ive got it :D its lovely, randomly got a pinch the other day because jonty hadnt put the inner tube in properly haha scared the life out of me, i was just helping my mate sort out his bike and bang it had gone!

He said in another thread he's buying a steamroller.

Yeah that is a gorgeous frame. I showed some interest in that when Dogs was selling it... but it is too tall for me.

and too small for me!

yeh i quite like that yates frame but £250 is max really for a first fixed
how about this!

too big for you lad

what am i looking for?
i already hav a 57cm tt road bike

mind thats a fair bit too big, mayb 2 or 3 cm

If I was 5 ft 10, Id be looking at 55cm frames, but I guess you have time to grow into it so a 56/57 might not be that bad. get properly measured up or use this http://www.competitivecyclist.com/za/CCY?PAGE=FIT_CALCULATOR_INTRO

At that price, I'd go for a Nelson. £225 inc fork, means yiou have £25 to put towards a respray if RW&B ain't your thing......

I'm going to be in the market for a new frame soon, and have about the same amount to spend (£250).

I've always quite liked the look of these. I've seen a few around london, who's got one/ridden one, and what are they like?

I already have a langster, so I'm not sure if I really want another alu bike.

thanks for the fit alexi, i think il bid up to about £150 on that frame (£170 in total) seems resonable dont you think?
