Well yeah, I've been maintaining the same thing... if you're not some kind of oversized tubing for steel to beef up the stiffness, the only real reason you can give as far as marketing it for actual track racing is that some guy prefers it over al or carbon.

But a frame made like the keirin ones with some Columbus Spirit tubes and lugs would still be better than a frame with 4130 tubes and lugs.

Funny parallel: A roadie would be laughed out of his Cat 3 race if he showed up with a 3Rensho steel road bike...
