Does anyone know where I can score one of the older olmos? like the lugged ones with the silver/white logos from a year or two back? and by "score one" I mean it doesn't have to be used, but that's fine too...used or new...I just figured there might some shops or distros that might still have some of the lugged ones.

Check out www.billronbikes.com They are a dealer in So Cal and handle those frames. They may have a line on one.

Good luck. Always thought those frame look smooth.

There's a few bigger (57-59cm) Olmo track frames collecting dust over @ Velosport in Helsinki. They do look nice

Occaisionally you can find one on ebay.

What size do you need?

thanks for the tips guys...billron is currently on vacation I guess.....and to answer bikedud's question, I'd need a 55...but the one I"m looking for is the older lugged version from a few years ago, not the current version.

bike works nyc has a lugged 54 used for $425, $375 without hs & bb. go for it...

cool...thanks! I emailed them about it.

If it works out you must post pictures.

good luck. bikeworks is a great little shop. barely room to breathe in there, but they know their stuff and do good work.

I ordered the frame... I think it should fit just right...my bike now is a 56 and I can barely straddle it, so the 54 should be perfect...like maybe a little small, but I kinda like that.

thanks for the heads up jitensha!

I'll post pics once it's all set up and ready to go.
