Finally got round to picking up parts.
Going to stick a brake or two on it later, but here's most of it.

Ill so not given it a ride outside yet. But it does trackstand well in the kitchen.

Don't think that worked.
45mm rake on those fake-o funda forks is probably a bit much.

yeah the front end looks a bit Dosnoventa...

Should hopefully have mine up and running tomorrow, if the parcel at the sorting office is the right one.

What if it's a wrongun?

Then I'll have more MTB bits instead.

I think the rake looks fine, ive just bought a set of those columbus tusks with a 30mm rake and i dont think its enough, i`m a size 12 foot and im concerned about toe overlap, cant find out till next week, if my frame turns up when its supposed to

although just having read the advert on ebay again it says their 45mm rake, pretty sure the labelling says otherwise though, just going to check again

Anyone know of any OTP track bikes with big geometry, 64cm-ish?

oh god knows, sod it, if i stick them on the frame and they look right and I have no overlap, all wel and good if not, then back to the drawing board, jeez I could drive myself nuts at this rate

Whether it's work aesthetically is irrevelant if it rode better.

heheh dosnoventa became a metaphor, how well deserved.

^^^ let us know either way, would be interesting. I would hope any overlap would only have a minor effect on the way it rides anyway.

^^
Can't tell about the ride yet. Not had a chance to take it for a spin yet.

Size 11 and 30mm rake forks here, i really wouldn't worry about it

cannondale track, maybe stevens pista, fort or duratec

otp eingang, who is going to find a 64cm cannondale track now?

a 60cm Dolan Precursa with a long +6 degree stem?

Final bits are here, should get it built later, not what I originally had in mind but hopefully fun, and pretty damn cheap all in.

otp eingang, who is going to find a 64cm cannondale track now?

from my understanding he was asking for otp to have a chance to get the geometry chart in the internet, to build a cheap mielec-version
