Geoff or others interested in the track...

  Here is pretty standard sized bike if you are interested.  Track bikes 
generally run 1-2 cm smaller than your road frame size.

Pass this one on, if you don't mind.

Howdy,

Medici Pro-Pista Track Frame
Silver with chrome fork, seat stays and chain stays - black logo's

Serial #: 54  080

Dimensions:
Top tube:  54.0 cm c:c
Down tube: 59.0 cm c:c
Seat tube: 53.0 cm c:c. 54.0 cm c:T (27.2 dia)
Head tube: 14.0 cm f:f, 8cm c:c

**************************
Sugino AS 165 track cranks
Campagnolo Record bb
Campagnolo Record headset
**************************

BB height measurement taken with Vittoria Corsa CX (28 mm) tires mounted on
Campy Strada Hardox 700c rims.

Would like to keep my (extra heavy-duty tandem sprint grade) wheels for my
new bike, but the rest is available. If you need the 165 Sugino track
cranks, then the price would go up $50 (track groups are getting rare
around here, and if I'm forced to replace any of the track-specific parts
I'll need every penny I can get).

Hardly ridden, never raced. Four or five fixed gear test road rides - two
times on the track. Makes a pretty nice sprint/points race bike and the
fork is factory-drilled for a brake (short reach).

I ride a 56 normally, but this 54 works OK with the seatpost all the way up
(for my 30 inch inseam) and a flat stem. If this works for you, let me
know.

$450 (negotiable). Interested?

Mike G.
