What is a decent (but cheap) modern track bike? I have a CAAD 10 Di2 that I love, so the CAAD 10 track jumps out at me.
Also, you can certainly do that 100%.

It's like if you had a 1980's Porsche 911. It's an absolutely wonderful car. But, if you got a modern Honda Civic, you'll get modern convienences such as:
  • Bluetooth cell phone integration
  • Navigation
  • Backup camera
  • Power windows
  • Power locks
  • Power steering
  • Cup holders

So, it really depends on your goal.
