I know the bike. Black frame, yellow letters? Nice ride. I believe he's a messer. See his bike locked up outside my building a couple time a week.

I'm pretty sure it is a track frame (haven't seen it in awhile, and my memory is good for about 20 minutes.) Couldn't find any pics on the Web, but CIOCC does make track bikes. Saw a couple old posts ('98) of people trying to sell 'em.

turns out there are two ciocc track frames in the area. i spoke with dreadlocks, says he even called ciocc to inquire about a new frame and still couldn't get an answer. his is not the first one i saw though. a bit older with a different color scheme.

Yeh, same here man. Occasionally I'll see two italian track bikes out in front of Reef. I think one's a De Rosa. I'm not sure what the other is, but they are both in pristine condition. Further down 18th street near Rosemary's Thyme is a somewhat beaten up Atala.
