I'm definitely going to ride/race track. At 63 I don't have a lot of time to do all the stuff I want to do but I'm going to fit track racing in there. Now I just need to find a suitable bike at a reasonable price. What should I look for, complete bike or frame....? I'm leaning toward a vintage/vet. rebuild to make a statement. Do I need track cranks, chainwheel? What wheels? Why raised hub flanges? Steel bars? Carbon forks? What rear hub? Tyres? Any assistance would be great, thanks.
