THIRD that. If that is possible. Man, you haven't heard of Nitto in the track world?! Where you been? In a hole? Just kidding. Nitto is one of the premier companies making cycling products. They're in Japan and cater extensively to the huge track and Keirin market over there. Gan Well, same thing but not as well known. Their frames are very sought after from experienced Keirin riders and carry a high price.

Japanese NITTO does not produce a frame
But NITTO has produced a few frames of a folding bicycle at the past
NITTO produces a bars, stems and a carrier of a bicycle
NITTO produces authorization part (NJS) of Keirin now

No, I didn't say that Nitto makes frames. I said that Nitto makes products for primarily the Track and Keirin markets (ex. clips, bars, stems, etc). Gan Well, is the company that I said makes frames.

Nitto does make a frame fork combo. it comes in one color and one size only (grey and 55x55). i have seen one with my own eyes. they come with absolutely no decals attatched, but a decal sheet comes with them. they have the typical Hatta/Swan headset and bottom bracket like the ever-so-popular Nagasawa. There is a shop in Portland, Oregon called Bike Central that sells all three bikes (Nitto, Gan Well Pro, and Nagasawa). All bikes are NJS approved if that matters. i believe their website is: http://www.bike-central.com/shop.php it doesn't have photos of the frames, but you can contact them and get more info. they have a bunch of track stuff and are the ones that keep the friday night track events going at the velodrome. they are a good place, if not a bit expensive sometimes. they can also order an amazing amount of stuff.

Saw some plain track frames labelled as EAI track frames in American Cyclery, SF. I wonder if these are really EAI or are the elusive Nitto frames?

They have no logos, one colour paint and they only had a few different sizes. Pretty tight looking. One was definitely plain grey and around 55/56cm.

Just thought I'd pass that along just in case.

Sadly they don't have them on their website yet.

EAI did/does ? have Nitto keirin frames. They were Tange tubed, lugged and had the bb shell with the NJS logo. And, they were silver.

The Bare Knuckle is a different frameset.
