dude, i've been cruising forums like this before your country picked up its first dial up connection.
i mean, are you honestly standing up for a guy trying to buy a serious track frame - but can't even size himself? as far as i know, you can't buy a pista concept online, so he has to get it from a shop and yet, he still doesn't know what size he is?
this forums if full of goons and trolls, all much bigger fish to fry than i. save yourself the carpal and go troll someone who cares.
Wow, an attack on where I live. Both original
and intelligent!
Do you feel it actually helps the forums to be a prick when someone asks a simple question? Luckily some people here are actually helpful and not arrogant young snobs; just look at the responses you got to this thread of yours! Such helpful people! Nice, wasn't it?

I was more or less set on either a Raleigh Rush Hour or Specialized Langster, both of which I could get for around $400. Then I heard about TATI, a bike shop in Chicago, through chifg.com.
The owner J offers some really awesome custom bikes, plus, as far as I know, hes also the only IRO dealer in Chicago. So that gave me the option of being professionally fitted for an IRO or getting an entire custom build. Unfortunately though hes way overbooked and can't accept any more work for at least a few weeks.
I still like the Rush Hour and Langster, but I caught something of a custom bike bug and the thought of getting a stock ride feels like I'm settling on an inferior product.
What do you guys think?
