Walter and ED:

Since my Atala is so bare of brazes, it's gonna be a fixie. Not a true track bike like ED wants because its geometry is so...untracklike. Track bikes are quick on the move with steep angles and short wheelbases.

I already have a Le Tour set up as a fixed gear, but I'm going to make it into an ersatz cyclocross bike. Doncha have a fixed Le Tour, Walter? Check out the high bottom bracket and you'll see what I mean. I'll use Mafac Racers for fake cantilever brakes.
