Motobecane Messenger or Windsor Hour, Clock work if you want relaxed geometry and hate toe overlap and fit wider tires,

Mercier Kilo TT or Binachi Pista if you want slightly aggressive track bike geometry and don;t mind some toe overlap.

my girls Messenger and my Kilo TT( these are old pics since I cut our handlebars to bullhorn)

I ride both of them and I like both for what I have mentioned earlier.

afterall, you can't go wrong with both.

you probably have to replace the saddle because stock saddles are uncomfortable as Fauk

So I went to order the Dawes and they were sold out for every color/size option I could use. I ended up ordering my 2nd choice, the Clockwork. It was waiting for me up at school when I got back last night and I put it together fairly quickly, and I've never put a bike together.

The only difficulties I had were making the brakes more sensitive but I think I've got it fixed now. It rides great and looks awesome. I'll probably look into buying a lockring to make it a fixie in the future.

Thanks for all of the help about a month ago!
