I love the look of the tear drop frame.

So far I have only found the:

Pista Concept
Leader 720tr
Leader 735 tr

What other frames have the tear drop?

any frame can be a teardrop frame if you put enough weight on the side of it : )

Dolan
Fuji track pro
Jamis Sonik

vertical dropouts are evil . . .

Aegis has replaceable dropouts. You can easily get them with horizontals. Picture just doesn't show it.

Tear drop shape refers to what specifically? The wheel cutout in the seat tube? The cross section of the tubing?

tepr 08-29-08 03:31 PM

the profile of the tubing, i assume
