Nope. Looked for about 10 weeks on ebay and they were all total crud. One guy from north shore had an old bike for reasonable dollars, but it just wasn't shiny enough for my liking.

Trubble with most 2nd hand track bikes is that you can never tell how much of a flogging they've had. Hard sprints put a bit of stress into the frame, especially at the BB. And if they're at a decent price it's usually because they've gone through twenty riders before they get to you !!

Spend the extra $$$ and be happy with a brand new felt/raceline/whatever.
