Don't listen to Nagrom, he cannot he even spell his girlie name forward.

Guys, I got this.

GT4 - welcome to the forum. I will be handling this request for you. Be advised that it usually takes a few days to get the parts ordered, the bike assembled, and photo studio set up. (The photos should be pretty quick because we are using a one-hour lab to do the developing these days; technology!)

It might be tough to find an appropriate team, this being the holidays and all, but usually the guys around here jump right on these requests. I will update the progress here and include any changes to the proposed schedule.

A few questions:
What color tires do you want?
Are you going to be rocking this whip fixie brakeless (I'll assume yes)

The rest of the team will be along with their questions soon.

I come from a road biking background and have many friends that ride track and roadie, so I already know most of the terms used on this forum. Colored tires are for hipsters imo. I'm getting rando rear and gatorskin front. Of course I'll run brakeless =D.

I've ridden with a couple guys that have the road version of this frame (vertical dropouts) and they are satisfied. Not the lightest frame in the world but $100 is a good deal, according to them.

I'd be worried about toe over lap on the smaller sizes. I notice on the geometry chart the seat tube and headtube angles do not change as the frames get larger.

Does bbattle's response seem like he's trolling? No. Some of us like to have fun with people who break certain taboo's, like coming in and throwing around a possibly perceived attitude in threads, though. These reactions happen in all hobbies and cultures, and subcultures and so forth. It's also the Internet. Sorry dude.

Also, it's a $100 nashbar bike. You say you've already read good reviews, yeah? There you go. Or adversely, you can go down to your nearest co-op or LBS and interact with real people instead of ordering your bike on the interwebs, because (and I hope you're sitting down for this next bit of news) people surprisingly used to do this all the time before online mailorder, etc. became a thing. You might even get properly fit and support a small business while you're at it - terrifying as that may be to some.

Just some friendly food for thought man, happy holidays :thumb:


Meet you there, ha?

Running rando rear and gatorskin front is more "hipster" than colored tires. The colored tires trend has now been reduced to only sparking interest in <15

Also, just shoveled three driveways and about to drown two chorizo and cheese burritos in sriracha. Eat a dick, winter storm Euclid! Might even make a sandwich. The Dave Scrod cookbook would be handy right now...

Yes. it is true. I was once named "TheElitePoop", but because of the many BS answers I got on my earlier threads, I figured it was my username that made (some) people so unhelpful (I mean REALLY, the guys at yahoo answers can be more helpful). So I changed my username to a more appropriate one in hopes of getting more helpful answers. People, I am not trolling, I just want to know more about track bikes. I know some of my questions are a little stupid or have already been answered; I feel as if the month and a half I have been on this forum (My first forum I've ever been on) has been long enough to know what everything is. I am seriously tempted to go to Velospace's forum.

You have 56 views, and your 10 most recent are listed. Chances are I'm there, because I looked around a little before calling you out as ElitePoop. Chances are i'm still there, because less than ten people have looked at your page since.

I also just checked it to see the number of views, so I'll be there for a while, champ.

Just chill out, search topics before posting (like this one), and try to refrain from name calling/stereotyping. You will get much more comprehensive answers to your questions this way.
