Wanna buy a Hand-Made track frame
 
I sold my bianchi pista.
Now I plan to have one hand-made track frame,and my budget is around usd500-1000
I have checked the GeekHouse frame,what do you guys think about this?
I would like to know your suggestion on other brand as well.

thanks

Marinoni Pista. MSRP is $695, and you have custom options for an extra $150.

I would honestly be very surprised if you could find a comparable bike at that price. I was considering getting one myself, but decided to save my pennies for a surly cross-check frame instead (Toronto weather is a *****).

if he was looking for the "actual track", he probably wouldn't be considering spending $700 on a steel frame.

just ride around town

just find something nice that's used. that way you can resell it and get your money back if you don't overpay or crash it.

Blog called cycloculture ran a piece about a frame maker named Allan Wanta. Mentioned something about $850 for custom frames, which fits the budget you mentioned. No affiliation or any idea if he's any good.

van09 03-10-09 08:15 PM

Thank you for all of you guy's advices

Yaktizzle417 03-10-09 09:14 PM
