Sorry to bug you track guys, I know you're probably sick of dealing with SSFGers, but I've got a question I think you guys would be better suited to answer.
I've been riding fixed for a while now and currently have a Steamroller and now that I've graduated college and now have a local velodrome to call me own, I'd like to pick up a new ride exclusively for track racing. Currently I'm working at a local bike shop (that is until I make it big as an internationally renowned photographer) so I have access to employee pricing and a variety of manufacturers. I'd like to pick up a bike complete for the sake of getting out to the clinics sooner than later.
I'm hoping the Rocky Mountain Boroughs would make a great first choice but I was hoping to get input from you guys on whether or not there really is a better option in the "serious, entry-level track-only" bike division. Disregarding employee pricing it'd come in around $950 CDN/American.
Rocky Mountain Boroughs (http://bikes.com/main+en+01_102+bikes.html?BIKE=2&name=Boroughs#2)
Our shop also has access to Raleigh, Cannondale, Bianchi and Lemond track bicycles.
