Kilo TT or Fuji feather for track
Hi, I am about to buy a new bike, and I realy am looking for a track bike feel. I LOVE this track bike feel. I am NOT good with geometry. I am choosing between these 2 only, for they look great. So wich one of these 2 would give me the best track bike feel? Agressive geometry and all. Thx a lot lot the help!

the kilo seems to have slightly steeper angles. but i dont know what that would mean for you. geometry can always be gotten around using different sized components and such. you can realistically make them feel the same if you wanted to.

Price is not an issue? Handbuilt custom. You get to specify what you want, your measurements get taken and you get a freshly tailored bike-suit that is as aggressive as you want. But I suspect that price may be an issue afterall.

Thx, I wasn't aware of that. Good to know. Right now I plan to ride it stock, for a years or 2 at least. I'll get better parts when the stock parts get used. So you would say stock, the Kilo has the more steeper geometry? I just like to ride very sprinty, very steep with the weight in front. It's how I enjoy riding. It's a big deal for me, the feel of the bike. Thx man. Any other opinion?

You're "choosing between these 2 only, for they look great", so pick the one you think looks better.

Personally, whatever you choose, I'd get it a few sizes too small so you can slam the stem and have a super tall seatpost so you can be more aero.

Then ride the rings off it - at that point, you'll be advising in threads like this, not starting them.

amazing.
funny thing is, im sure the kilo tt is what he thinks he wants but the fuji would probably suit him better comfort wise for his intended use.
to ramp things up.
