[B]need some clarification on brands[/B]
Dear members, am new to this forum and I am going to buy a fixie from SCOLARIAN BIKES (new company started in india). I am not clear about the materials and their qualities. I like those and test drived 10 days ago. But I like to compare it with Fuji track comp bike. Can any one compare them and tell me whether am I investing in a good product. (I like Scolarian bikes but I need expert advise) . check scolarianbikes.com . thank you all.

If you've seen them in person, then you know way more than any of us. I don't recognize the frames as being rebranded from some other company. 4130 isn't bad. The components seem typical inexpensive stuff but not worthless. My overall feeling is that the Fuji Track Comp is a better bike but without some idea what you would be paying for each it is hard to say whether it is a better deal. I take it that you live in India?

Which year of Fuji Track Comp? My 2010 has aero shaped aluminium tubing, a carbon fork, and track geometry, making it vastly different from the 4130 ChroMoly steel bikes Scolarian sells.
