Frames w seat post cut out?
I know leader has frames with the seat post cut out. Are there any other brands out there with this? Thanks http://www.leaderbikeusa.com/wp-cont...eritage-lo.jpg

what you should be asking is: what are the frames with seatpost cutout done properly that doesn't look jackass
Basically any top of the line track carbon frame Al (most mid-level true track frames): Bianchi Super Pista Cervelo T1 Affinity Kissena Specialized 2013 Langster PRO Giant Omnium Fuji Track Pro Felt TK2/TK1 what else? |

They all look jackass when the wheel is set toward the back of the dropout leaving a huge abyss between the seat tube and tire. If you can't get the wheel to fit inside the cutout, either because of wrong gear ratio, too long chain, or poor frame design, it defeats the purpose of the cutout.

Race day has more gear changes than training days most of the time.

Yes and no. If you are training and changing gears for it then it's not really jackass, just break the chain for race days to actually make use of the cutout. But for street use I agree, cut outs are kinda jackass.
