The frame itself is supposed to be stiff and reliable but the welds are big and ugly. If I were in the market for an aero-tubed track frame I would consider it.

We have 2 LV1s and so far no complaints, the welds do show but at least the beads are even and don't look so bad "dime roll" .

A frame is just a component like any other. If you like it, buy it, it's not as though it's expensive. If you build a nice bike around it and then decide the frame was the wrong choice, buy the right frame, swap the bits and sell this frame.
