Retrogression Excel Track Frame
Just ordered one and waiting to build it up. Any one else have it?
I'd love to see some pictures. |
Nope; you're the first to post up you have ordered one here. If you get yours built fast, you might even be able to beat scrod's promo/ demo build. ;)
|
o snap. Hype it up on the hurry.
Build that biek. |
should be together in a couple weeks. sram s300. novatec hubs to fusion rims. scrods straight fork. cane creek s3 headset. and more good stuff.
|
I definitely like this frame. Excel is the new Kilo TT?
|
i hope so
finally people will shut up about kilo tt |
We've sold quite a few of them and most orders - oddly enough - have been international. We just shipped a couple to Malaysia and one dude wrote me to say he's the envy of all his friends (for whatever reason, Malaysia LOVES Retrogression).
I've been slacking on getting mine built up. I may just swap stuff over from my 722 to take some pics and get them up on the site. |

It's probably because you have good prices and don't overcharge for international shipping as I imagine some larger companies might do. Kudos!
Can't wait to see a build! |
Oooo, Excited to see where this is going
|
I was tempted to get one, but it was rite at the time that I purchased my cyclocross frame. As odd as it may seem, I still need to keep within my monthly bike budget.
|
The geometry looks really fun. I'm curious to know how it rides and looks.
|
I can't wait to see one built up too. The black looks killer!

Never seen that one before. Interesting... :D
|
I'd get one if I didn't have this damn Kilo.. Been longing for a more standard size headtube and seat tube lol.

what do you mean? is it pretty relaxed or more twitchy track geometry?

B-u-m-p
|
This thread is useless without pics.

Haha, yes of course from a Lo Pro rider. Love your bike. I might just steal it...
Just kidding. |
just now looked at the frame...the white one is nice...want to see some builds of this
|
maxway (who builds the excel) also built my reynolds 631 sputnik for jamis, and seems to do pretty clean work. their cast track ends are a nice touch...the sputnik has 'em, and the excel appears to also. the geometry is not for me, but it's still a great deal @ $200.
|
Maybe retrogression could do a LoPro or Alien V1 rendition next? I would get rid of my kilo for an alien v1. i know brake holes and bottle bosses are "useful" but if i wanted that i'd just buy another road bike. i hated the alien v1 when it came out but my tastes have matured.
otherwise it's money in the shoebox to go to frame building school so i can build something similar. |
