Spicer cycle track store
I just wanted to recommend these guys. They have alot of good track specific parts at a good price with really good shipping prices and outstanding customer service.
I'd give them a 5 pie rating

I ordered Nitto bars from Gene; very friendly and personable. They shipped the bars the same day and they arrived two days later.
And I echo the good product and shipping prices comment.

Haven't bought from him yet, but I intend to eventually. I've already talked with Gene about building a 650c track frame. Very helpful.

I met a girl two years ago who said she had two aluminum Spicer frames fail. Same problem on each, the rear triangle was pulling out of alignment toward the drive side. I only saw the second one, but I put a frame gauge on it and it was definitely bent. Maybe they're not designed with the street rider in mind? She also mentioned that Spicer was planning to beef up the stock alloy bike, so maybe the problem is fixed now.

I also have a spicer. Its an AL track/road frame and I am extremely happy with it. It was cheap too! Gene is the man!
