tell me why a kiloTT is not a "real" track bike
first off: i have "no dog in this fight." I'm just trying to understand how a "real track geo bike" differs from something i bought for cheap. the bike feels responsive, even scary-responsive to me, and i'm just trying to find out how my bike differs from a legit velodrome bike.
Not because i want to change bikes, just because i want to understand. i also would like to know how someone on, say, a Dolan's, ride experience would differ from mine.
the purpose of this thread is for you to educate me, not for me to grind some axe that my Kilo is "really a track bike."
tell me why a Kilo is not a legit, or semi? legit track bike.
going into this:
-wheelbase seems too long, based on what i've found on google
-angles of seat and head tubes seem consistent with what i have read is "track angles" (i'm on a 55cm, and it does matter if you look at the geo chart)...again, based on google.
-bb drop seems too high for "real track" geo (google)
-trail measurement seems "tracky" to me? i don't know what i'm doing here. it's a low number, which i read as "track ish".
have at it!
