I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume that Cannondale wouldn't put their pro riders onto a velodrome on a road bike with track ends.
They have experience making track frames, I'm pretty sure they're using it.


It's also not drilled for a rear brake. Good sign it's a bonafide track racing frame.

Don't underestimate bike companies. Riders have to ride what they are given (for the most part).

Also, when they asked the frame builder (in Asia) to make one with track ends, they could easily say, "Don't drill out the seat stay bridge.". That's easier than setting up a new jig and producing a new fork.

If the geo on that wasn't so slack it would be cool.

Pursuit/TT bikes are supposed to have slack headtubes though.

This was back before the UCI (the cycling world's governing body) got all strict about bike design.

Whoever has this bike installed deep drops for lulz.

Ahh ok, it makes sense with the bullhorns, I just didn't understand how one would actually use those drops.

I suspect it's a "stayer" bike for motor pacing.

Nice CK headset. For some reason, all of a sudden I want to get real high.

Nagrom_ 02-13-14 10:11 AM

I feel like there's some subliminal messages being sent.

I really want a Chris King headset now.

Points lost for piss-poor editing job between the rear spokes. Otherwise, yes please.
