D&D is pretty metal.
But then again so is my bike, literally.
also, anyone interested in making this list fer real, include hyperlinks if you have time. Zelda was a pretty metal game too.

Can someone point me to a list of track frame.
I believe there is a list floating around, just can't seem to pin point it.
Or better wording would be, a list of bikes with track ends.
Also, I've spent a good deal of time looking for a specific section of Sheldon Browns site for a page where type of bike are broken down into 4 columns, including Road, touring, classic, and track, they're each in their respective columns.

I also consider track ends to be a Bad Thing, an unfortunate, silly, atavistic fad.
I like horizontal dropouts (front opening, angled roughly perpendicular to the seat stays.)

While the great wisdom of Sheldon must be respected lest the universe tilt off kilter, I still vote that a list of track bike manufacturers would be at least marginally useful, or at least a list of quality builders as voted on by the bike forums populace. of course there could be divisions for entry-level, mid-range etc... perhaps a new thread. and yes by all means a list simply of bikes with track dropouts is useless. But a list of true track bikes and possibly even the best horizontal dropouts--which are safer, would be a nice "search for thread moron" landmark---seeing as there are debates in nearly every "I'm building a fixed gear thread"... as to what is the better frame/the same frame, etc.

i agree with yoshi. your best bet is to do a search on craigslist with search terms like "track" "fixed" "single" "fixie". to peruse the listings and try to locate recognizable bike models will take you forever...
which bordering states specifically are you searching?
if you find something interesting, run it by us first. you sound like a newbie, and could potentially get ripped off. PM me if you prefer.

In the most repectful manor, How are you going to tell me that a page I've been to doesn't exist.
What i'm trying to do since you're especially intrigued, is look for brands that made frames with track ends, because I'm searching craigslist in 3 bordering states looking for a bike. I believe trek made one, not sure who else, thats why I was looking for the list.
And I promise you, the page does exist
