Planet X Pro Carbon Track

If you believe that was directed at you then clearly your hating deep down ;P

dimi3, do you have pics of yours with track wheels?

^^
I find it annoying when people call a ride 'harsh' & 'uncomfortable'.

I used to ride a Look 464 on the road (then a PX just like this one) and I remember popping into Condor where a sale assistant was saying out loud 'the 464 is sooo harsh on the road, who would ride that?'. It was a great, stiff ride.

Are we all supposed to ride a fully suspended MTB / touring bike / with wide tyres for maximum comfort??

You would be the first one to take the piss if he was building a Dutchie bike with Ultegra 6800 11sp! 'It's too comfortable'

People have always moaning about track frames being too harsh for riding on the road but it's usually because they haven't and don't ride one daily. If you commute and ride a track bike around the harshness becomes normal, in fact it feels strange when you ride something and you can't feel what the road is doing beneath you. It's about what you get used to and enjoy, hence me getting a custom road bike build with pretty much track geometry and as stiff as possible.

Not at the moment, no.

If you guys read back a little you will see that i ordered a different fork with a 43mm rake to combat the overlap, the fork also takes bigger tyres its identical to the planet x one, im going to be riding 28c both front and back with the rear wheel pulled back a bit to accommodate the bigger tyre.

yes its going to be stiff and yes there will be some toe overlap, but like i said before this is my first build not my first bike.

Got a headset so i managed to put the forks on and some old risers i had, it doesnt look too bad...

OH GOD not risers :L

Longer stem? Looks good though

turbo looks strange on there

turbo looks strange on there

looks a bit strange i agree.

Longer stem? Looks good though

yes i have a 90mm coming soon this is just some old risers and stem from an old fgfs bike

Fuck yes. This is just the right kind of absurd build. Good work.

#absurd glad you like it!

ditch the turbo and throw on a nice tt base bar carbon bullhor dealio

Not sure about the silver tyre on the front.

^ lol are you for real?

You've also cut the steerer tube a bit too much.

met Adscan earlier today and took the zipp replica stem and drops of him, this is what it looks like on the bike, what do you guys think?

^That looks so right.

they are seriously growing on me, i wasn't too sure earlier today but the more i look at it the more better it looks.

Slowly morphing into

^ lol i wish

The turbo saddle sores my eye though.

needs crabon saddle an pursuit bars then all hail king of crabonz

^ Shit hipsters/fixxehh skiddahs say. Does need a flite or something of the sort though. Turbo doesn't suit the frame. I am kinda leaning towards wide risers on this but depends on owner's preference. Build is looking rad though, any idea of gear ratio you'll be running?
