Romic Track Frame
Started building my first track/ss bike. I got lucky last week when a guy that bought some of my old Campy stuff that I had lying around traded me this frame along with a Campy Record Pista crankset and BB for another old frame I had. I love these old Romic rides. I guess it's the Houston connection

Nice deal! I've come close to pulling the trigger on a Romic a few times. That must've been one nice frame that you traded!

Hello all,
Nice Romic for sure.
I put up a site a while back on Romics - and would love to have you contribute pictures of your bike when it's built.
I have a lot of track bike examples that I've yet to post - Romics had a great history in velo racing during the 80's - and have some nice pics to add.
[I just noticed Kirke also mentioned this... thx !]

Take care
