something is a little off with that build maybe the seat is to chunky for the aero tubing and the stem is a bit beefy for the drops.
but I'm kinda a dick so don't pay any attention to me. |

I was thinking an SLR saddle would be a better fit for the build. Stem is fine.

I finished setting it up today and rode it around, and the chain needs to be tighter, the seat needs to be a couple inches higher, and the bar stem needs to be tightened because the handlebars were moving around a little bit. |

I bought this track frame from the shop I used to work at. I have heard one story that it's nameless Taiwanese fare and another story that it is high-end ridiculousness. The welds are very nice, and downtube and chainstays are ovalized/flattened. The tag says "Maccici" but I know that's wrong. I don't actually care, as it's an art-project of a build, but I would like to know. It's Titanium, 60st x 58tt.

GT made two off the shelf track bikes, the pulse and GTB.
the triple triangle design with the seatstays bisecting the top tube has been used by many many other manufacturers. i don't think the olympic team ever used titanium bikes, so i don't think you're right at all. a lot of titanium bikes are custom made so that only makes it less likely that you're right. |

My Trek 560 fixed gear. Weinmann DP18's on 700x23 tires, Shimano 105 crank running 42/16. Just added the nashbar bullhorns a few days ago, but I still need to put on the bullhorn brake levers. Anyways, I'm loving it so far :) |
Still a mystery
Come on... I was expecting better than "it looks like a GT" GT's all had a tube-end hanging out of the back of their triple-triangle. (look at any GT) I wondered if it was a lost prototype for GT, but it's not even a possibility. Again: any Ideas? The dropouts are crazy-thick, if that helps.

Youre gonna put a Brooks and Veep Ds on that hot ass frame? :(

I've since adjusted the seat/bar angles (both were tilted up slightly) and dropped the seat a few mm + its got a saddle pack, water bottle holder and cats eyes lights on the front and back http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p...k/P6022376.jpg (suburbs) also, I am 6'4 and YES I realize the frame is massive |
