I have nearly finished building a Planet X Track bike for Pursuits - no photos as yet though.

Well, I thought it was about time I added mine in here. Original frame now fixed on the right and little brother on the left.

Base bar is fine. But the clip on extensions have a rise that is too high (where your hands grip). Have a look at the pictures on page 7 of the link. It is possible with those bars to place your hands on the very end of the extensions and thus have arms that are not flat. Your forearms must be horizontal. You could possibly hacksaw about 8cm off the ends of them and they might pass. But they look too long too and would need to slide back a bit. You'd be surprised how short the extensions have to be when they get measured up.dalai47 wrote:Why DD?

Raced the IP Saturday on the Planet X. Still some work to go before the Nationals in March (couple seconds outside my PB from a few years ago) - but have my files from both the qualifier and final so know what I need to work on...Derny Driver wrote:Those bars are illegal
Whilst there I sat my bike in the jig - all lined up perfectly! Saddle exactly 5cm behind the BB and extensions right on 75cm forward of the BB. Forearms definitely level...

I'm as happy as a dog with 2 tails! The wind (it's always a little windy at The Kenrick Tucker Velodrome) surprised me how it affects the front end. We'd been doing some motor paced 200s (12.99 for an old fat bloke!) and as i drifted up from behind the bike i got a buffeting which had me back off a touch in the previous run, but got it together for my PB. Bundaberg International Cycling Spectacular this weekend will be it's public debut
Thanks again Jacks1071

Good Carnival, i got smashed, but that was expected. improved from last year though so i'm happy with it all. My daughter (u11) went well, no wins but 3 placings including a place in the U11 combined wheel race. For pics have a look at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Steve-Ri ... f=ts%20nad on the bundy Club Page on facebook "Bundaberg Cycling Club"foo on patrol wrote:Have fun at Bundy Brades and if you can post up some pics of the event.
