Oooooooohh!!! The Montello is fighting for the title of the sexiest crazy carbon track monster with that Look or whatever it was. I think it just won as well. The paint job is not up to the level of the frame, but good God it's hot! The shoulder of the fork is a real winner. I dunno if it does anything, but I want it badly.

I like the rear end of the first but the front of the second. wow, bikes are like people.

I was really hoping for a wavy ONDA fork, but the shoulder on the Montello will do. And the first one does have wavy stays, so that counts too.

Is there a reason for the wavy stays and fork blades or is it just for looks? I can't decide if I like the way it looks.

i understand why they are designed and look they way they do, but modern track frames are so UGLY.

you see, there's this thing called the track, and sometimes, people race around it. you use those CRAZY bars to go faster on timed events.

The montello could still be cleaned up aerodynamically, too many little frills hanging about that would disrupt the airflow, give me my BT anyday
