isotopesope, how tall are you? i'm 6'7" and i recognize another tall man's bike.
6'7"!? damn. i'm 6'4" with a little over 36" inseam barefoot. the steep angle and super short fork make the headtube huge! thus, it looks even bigger than it is. it's a 60 c-c... or is it 61? haha i don't remember.

new guy,
i only raced it a few times last year. it handles great though! parallel 75's with a 38mm rake fork. i based it off of my old bianchi. the best part about it is how incredibly stiff the chainstays are. it accelerates so well. i hope to race more this coming season. last summer i was more into gardening and riding mountain and road, so i didn't get to the track too much, despite it being a few blocks from my house!

being a part of the build was a lot of fun. i made a few mistakes, but nothing major. i'm actually going to start machining all of eric's dropouts here at work, though we're typically a tool and die shop. i'm looking forward to it.
